I run,
I chase,
I climb the tallest of mountains,
I ford the heaviest of streams.
Still,
that goal,
that hope for a brighter day,
seems ever further.
As I struggle in my strife,
my mind reaches to you,
and I call out,
“Hope, for the fool you love most, won’t you stop?”
And as my Hope halted it’s fleeing,
I remembered a lesson learned.
