Hope

Hope.

That isn't a word I used often.

Words like "broken, beaten, betrayed, deceived."

Those were the words I said.

They used to fit my life.

Now, I have something to look forward to.

A change in my being.

The sun looks a little brighter today.

The sky looks a tad bit bluer.

The birds' song seems sweeter.

My family and friends seem more wonderful.

I am walking down a path that is not easy.

But, most paths never are.

The difference with my path is,

I can see the light ahead.
