HOPEFUL

I intend to find the good

Though it may be faint; minuscule

I will search ‘til it appears

I know it’s there

Perhaps it’s just afraid to show

Obscured by factors I don’t know

Avoiding all that it should rightfully beware

Because I so hunger to see

Perhaps there is danger for me

Or disappointment, if good never shows its face

But I know it’s there so I

Will purpose every day to try

To draw it out and watch

As it colors this space
