Finding Hope

Sometimes we’ve been through
enough to see hope as a
distant memory,
absent present,
and an uncertain future.

Forgetting [for a moment]
that we’ve seen hope before.
Not only have we seen hope before,
we’ve experienced it for ourselves.

Sometimes we must
look back to move forward
and let go to hold on.
