Prologue

This is a new story I'm starting. A new chapter, and I'm naming it after the one thing I really lack right now.
Hope.
I've been told, and I've read ,seen and heard that the true evidence of hope is when it's hardest to have it. I had lost hope in people, in myself and mostly in the existence of love in the world. I was really done with all of it, and I was ready to turn over a cynical new leaf in life. But a few friends of mine have shown me that even in the darkest night, light still shines through. So in honor of the gift that they've given me, I'm starting this new story, and I'm going to call it "Letters to Hope". This is going to be my way of holding on to the hope that they've given me, and my way of documenting my wait. And it's also going to be my test, to display hope when it's hardest to have it. So please follow me on my journey as I wait for my "Hope" to arrive.

My first attempt at a love letter

I remember telling you the day we sat down on those cold tiles that you were the silver lining to my cloudy days. So today, I'm writing to you, my silver lining. I've wanted to write one of these to you for a long time. I told myself, though, that the timing was never perfect. I'll be happy to put pen to paper and express what a joy your presence has been for me, even if you never read this. If I were required to give explanations for my feelings toward you, I would have a long list that would continue to get longer over time. The one that would top them all, though, is just this: It's because of you that I was able to be the person I wanted to be. It was dark here until you brought light. Since that initial afternoon, there have been several incidents that have felt like a roller coaster. Nevertheless, despite the ups and downs, apologies and quiet. I now have a better understanding of what it means to be human. And even if this never happens. I'll be happy to h...

Day 2

Hello my Hope, Today I came up with a wonderful analogy for human hearts, even though it does sound a bit far fetched. I think that they are like glass sculptures, beautiful to behold and a marvel to look at. In the light, the shine with a million colors and reflect it as it falls upon them. They mesmerize and dazzle , they sparkle and gleam like nothing you have ever seen. This gives me the thought that with the right environment, ones heart can truly shine and light up the worlds of others. And I am a living testament to that, at least I think I once was. But back to my point, no matter how dark it might seem, if you shine just the right amount of light, warmth and love on it at just the right spot, little by little it will begin to shine. And even though the process might take a little while. If you don’t give up, the results will completely be worth the wait. Now you might not entirely agree with what I'm saying, in fact I don’t want you to, because that is a very naïve way of ...

Flutter by

She hides her smile, like a treasure, it must be found, but if it means that I have to swim through the darkest days, and dig through pieces of a broken heart, I will gladly do so, if only to see it once more, and feel them again, The Butterflies, As her smile makes all my troubles flutter by.
