Hope is a wondrous magical thing
Take it away and with it goes everything
All light, all happiness, all peace
It all goes away
But preserve it and you preserve everything
You can withstand anything,
Stand up to the worst that life throws at you
Hold on when everything goes against you
You can withstand the pain of loss
And the hell of love lost
The worst the enemy can throw
Is but a pittance to the power of hope
It's an amazing creature
It survives when all else is lost
It needs but a single spark
to preserve your life and sanity
It needs so little to survive
A mere possibility is all it requires
It doesn't need to be fed
It survives on it's own
You can tell it to end
but until every possibility
is exhausted
It will never die
It never gives up,
It never surrenders
It asks no favors
It needs little feed
But it thrives on
a single chance
Just one is all it needs
One chance the key
They say hope springs eternal
I'm here to call them right
Hope never truly dies
Nor gives up the fight
