A Song of Hope
The train was around the bend
Who am I to even pretend
The shattered glass lay on the floor
I took another and poured some more
You walked in through the front door
A gift from a friend, you were two months then
You climbed into my lap and drifted off
My heart was yours, hope rekindled once more
Hope is like a piece of glass, that has caught the sun
And reflects off it’s surface, when the darkness has passed.
My constant companion you looked out for me
And would wait even when I was late
You would wag your tail and be my mate
And led me slowly into recovery
Two years have passed now you helped me heal
Licking all my pain away and mending my heart
As of now I know hope is never the slamming of a door
It’s sunlight caught in your eyes reflecting like glass.
Hope is like a piece of glass, that has caught the sun
And reflects off it’s surface,when the darkness has passed.
