Hope

Hope 
Is nowhere on 
Earth

She has hidden her face
Among the crowd of stars

Far from the maddening crowd

On snowy peaks

Somewhere

Away from the 
Clutches of time

In realms Of eternal bliss

From human hearts
She decamped

She faded like fancy's rainbow 
That withdrew s

In the winking of an eye

It never grows
 In mortal bosoms 

People aspire, wish
 And weave dreams
And with dreams funerals in their wild eyes 
Return to their 
Last abode
Where earth 

Hides them all 
In her bosom

You are right, But hope is eternal wish without which we can not survive. I like your style. Keep writing,

Loads of Thanks, no doubt hope is eternal wish. But sometimes it becomes a mirage in the desert of human emotions. It is present in the world but hidden in snowy peaks far far away from the madding crowd.
