Hope: A Poem

June 8, 2022
HOPE
I’m running and running as fast as I can,
In reality I am sitting,
But on the inside I’m spinning like a lost soul wandering
I’m running a race with HOPE, and trust me, she is a fast runner.
I’m running and running as fast as I possibly can,
But HOPE is a great runner,
And right behind me, FEAR is near.
Usually he is pretty slow but today he is running as fast as ever.
I run and run as fast as I can,
But FEAR is gaining in closer.
Finally, I realize that I am running away,
That running away will cause more problems,
So I stop running and sprinting and take a leap of faith,
Towards FEAR.
I pounce on him and tackle him,
Kick him and punch him,
Taking all his power away,
And Hope,
Well she took a leap towards my way.
