What Does Hope Look Like?

Look into the eyes of an expecting mother,

To fathom a world of emotions for her unborn child.

But observe a yearning gaze of a childless couple,

To uncover, what pain of void looks like?

You see all those kids scuttling around in the park,

Their tummies are full of food and laughter melting off every plight.

Watch out for the kids sleeping on the street sometime,

To uncover, what failing to make ends meet looks like.

You ship an elderly couple drunk in teenage romance,

Straddling the street, holding hands on the fly.

Witness the sinking fall of a girl who lost her love to death,

To uncover, what breaking inside looks like.

What does hope look like? I wonder now...

Must be our imagination bettering into reality!

Like that childless couple having a baby someday.

Like the kids on the street with enough food on their plates.

Like that girl with lost love becomes capable of loving again.

If hope lives anywhere, even in a fragment of our fantasy world...

I hope that hope comes to life someday!
