Her Humbled Hope Poem by Trevor Schulte

I see her sitting
while the whole world
breaks apart
with hopeless anguish
shattering its existence
into material matter.
Her vision stays steadfast
as these issues
attempt to force a wince
out of a steady assurance.
Yet, she holds her head high
looking beyond the
bitter past
and onto the bright future.
Her character
defines her life,
pushing the afflictions
off the edge of realization
and onto
the floating clouds of hope.
Her focus breaks the bounds
that pain draws,
opening the doors of opportunity
and letting nothing
but joy and happiness in.
This distinct life
of love and trust
brings forth
a promise that goes beyond
every promise ever made.
She is not the author
of this promise,
but a mere reflection
through a life that sees
what others choose not to see;
influencing what others
have not already influenced.
What I really picture is a light,
that shines so bright,
that it brings her Hope
an immortal delight.
