however long night
sunrise clears away darkness
flowers reopen

On Hope viii
words stuck in our throats
escape contraction, open
our eyes, free our hearts

On Hope vii
when will this sadness end?
she asked, because she knew it must
we both could feel the cold lump of it
in our stomachs, welding us together
when we are both happy?
I offered, to see how happy might sound
it sounded like a bowl of tears
a set of randomly selected letters
it reprised the call of an albatross
fatally wounded

On Hope vi
we will meet again
that is written, ’tis our fate
yes, all will be fine

On Hope v
light across hard ground
miles devoured with smiles
alive to what’s new

On Hope iv
risen from deep sleep
with strength of limb, mind at peace
unburdened of years

On Hope iii
woken by bird song
sun breaching the horizon
without memory

On Hope ii
chest-deep in your tears
you waded to the far bank
found a place of rest

On Hope
see, you have survived
but how was this possible?
your heart was broken

keep on keeping on
however much it’s hurting
one step at a time
