Hope

Hope is my four letter word
Rushes past me like a blur
With quick hands I grasp the dart
And clutch it tightly to my heart
Squeezing nothing like a sponge
Droplets fall to quench my tongue
Speaking riddles for my healing
Hope is my familiar feeling
Life is just a yin yang
It hits me like a yo yo
Life is just a yin yang
It hits me like a yo yo
Time has become my master
Moving forward, faster, faster
Falling, falling ever after
Once upon a small disaster
Smell the bird, hear the flower
Turn the table, tip the tower
Stop the hands, stop the clock
Stop it 'till it hits the spot
Life is just a yin yang
It hits me like a yo yo
Life is just a yin yang
It hits me like a yo yo
Pain is like my older sister
She hugs me tight until I blister
She burnt that message on my brain
Made me crazy, now I'm sane
Hope is my four letter . . .
