Hope

I hope to have hope. I need to cope.
Life’s a steep slope. Living is like climbing
up a burning rope. These four letters form
protection from the storm. I search for
the light that guides my sight. I try to fly
this kite every day and night. I try to win
this fight – to ensure there is nothing left.
I hope I have hope – a burning light
in the dark. I hope to be myself.
I hope I can be of some help.
