Staggered Hope

Used to think I knew what I wanted.

Be careful what you wish for. Heard that before.

You can climb the mountain, but when you get to the top what do you have left?

To slide down on your butt.
Dreams pop in and about. Dabbled tribes of faces come and go.

Life’s missions unfold. Deadened goals eliminated.

What’s in the past stays there. The Universe designs the landscape for tomorrow.

Things happens exactly the way they should. Doesn’t always feel right.

Happiness is earned. Transcribed through time.

Affirmations scribe healing.

Today I feel deafened by sadness.

No job. No money.

Yet I’m able to reach out.

Find food. Feel love.

Appreciate the support.

For tomorrow, there’s staggered hope.
