Hope

a poem:

hope, like the curve of the horizon,
promises
that the world is round,
that i won't fall off the edge,
and that the sun will rise
with every tomorrow.


and a journal:

hope, like the curve of the horizon. hope, like flying, like loving, like breathing, like waking up every morning and living and living and living. hope like peace and hope like reconciliation. hope like goodness and beauty. hope like friends who smile and lovers who hug. hope like families who remain. hope like a god who is and is and is and is for all eternity and until for-ever and until everything is nothing and everything and hope becomes peace and there are no more words.
