Hope In Your Pocket
Is it in your chest?
People think that it is.
Physically, that could be true.
Emotionally, I am not so sure.
Is it something that you can give away?
That is half-true.
You can give half to Kay.
If she’s right, then you will be whole.
However, if she’s not the one, it
will be like being run over by a train,
like you gave away a pool of blood.
People think it is exhausting.
I trust it will find you!
Keep hope in your pocket, and eventually, it
will become a reality.
Hey, what do I know?
We reflect and glimpse impressions
through tired eyes.
