Hope

A girl who feels each day is just another set of pain. Meets a boy. who she calls Hope. Together they can find happiness, and find hope within a bad painfull past.

Hope

I look up at the dawn sky.

Blinded by its beauty, by the hope of a new day becoming, and the past left behind.

Look around, for all I see was kindness. Until the night comes.

Crime, murder, emotions being twisted in plain sight.

I look up at the dawn sky.

Another day has started and with my might, it will be good.

The good only lasts so long, I turn around.

There she is. Her shadow casted by the sun.

The sight when happiness and fun, leaves me behind.

Yelling, punishment, and the past engulf me. I'm lost.

The night sky falls, and I cry for another day is about to end.

The pain. The repetition of a broken mind and heart that I can't mend.

I scream in my own mind and blame God for all that has happened to me.

Six years later, there he is. Hope. Could this be?

He grabs my hand. Its okay now.

The past stands behind me with a knife sharp as glass.

Hope.

He protects me. Something I never felt before. A reason.

The past still behind me, blames me for treason.

But why? All I have done is stood silently as it hurt me.

Hope puts my mind at ease. Can this really be?

I stare deeply into the dawn sky.

Hope sits there next to me. Staring.

I begin to love him. I trust him.

A new day has begun. I prepare for the worst.

Nothing. No pain on this day. I am happy.

Elated I run into Hope's arms, open and welcoming. I hug him. I cry on his shoulder.

No longer will I be alone. No longer will I need to punish myself.

Welcome home my love. My Hope. He who helps one find oneself. I welcome you.

With open arms, held wide open. I hug him. Kiss him.

No longer do the tears roll down my face. My heart no longer filled with grim.

I look up at the dawn sky.

No longer does the light the sun casts feel so dim.

The pas no longer can destroy me. Cut me.

My heart was locked but he has the key.

I trust him with it. For I am not alone

My flesh, my heart, my soul longer cast in the stone that hypocrisy has created.

I stare into his blue eyes, I feel relief. I feel...happy.

For how long have I waited for this.

We stand at the dawn sky. Holding each other's hand.

We have made a new path. Made with our own dreamland.

I lean closer, he holds my cheek. We kiss.

No longer can my past hurt me. I won't let it. I enjoy the bliss.

The bliss of happiness, that we all strive for.

I have found you.

The dawn sky, with its beautiful fiery hue, how you remind me of my love.

My battle with the past, and my own mind.

One last time. I stare at the Dawn sky.

Hope, will never leave me.

It has the key.
