Hope Illuminated

Hope is a torch that brightens the dark
A match that lightens the heart.
Hope is a gentle touch that many a human doth lack
A loving kiss;Sensual caress; Helpful remark.

Hope is a faith that a journey must end
Like a tsunami against the sea.
Hope is the stitches to a soul thus rend
In war,a feeling of peace.

Hope is the tree that grows in hostile dirt
A fiery wildfire.
Hope is a fierce flower flaming red
A scorched soul; A burning desire.

Hope is the will to be in the field of be or not to be.
The faith to end up living life in your dream.
