Hope is something that's always there for us
We can never forget about hope
Because hope gives us the strength to keep moving forward to the unexpected
Hope has helped so many people
Well that's what people think
Hope doesn't guide us anywhere
Our decisions and actions do
Hope isn't the good thing that people describe it as
Because if hope is what you always turn to
Then what will happen when hope fails you? What if hope continues to fail you?
Then you'll continue to lose all hope
Then you realize without hope there's nothing but only despair
Hope is the last step down of the staircase to despair
Then what's there?  What's there to give you the strength to keep going?
You.
You have the strength to keep going
No matter how many times you fall back down the staircase
You have the knowledge to be able to go through obstacles and learn from your mistakes along the way
No matter how many are thrown at you and how many times you fail
You have the patience to make it up the staircase
No matter how long it'll take you
You have the power to believe in yourself
No matter how many people don't
You have the bravery to continue up to the unknown
No matter how scared you get
You have the confidence to make the right step
No matter what the odds are
You can only make it up
If you believe in yourself
Old poem I did a lot of edits and added more to it.
