Hope: Slave Narrative

Hope is something that is wished for
Hope something that we want 
when we feel like our prayers
aren't being answered
Hope gives us joy for the future
A time when better things await
Hope is a miracle
Something wonderful
Something not from this world
and I know what you're thinking if 
hope is all of these things
how can one obtain it 
and the answer is simple
it's embedded in all of us
but to be more precise
Hope is found at the heart
