Holding Hope

- The longing for freedom to elope this place. Dark history within, steals the smile from his face.
- Disbursing shame upon himself, as if under a spell - quietly I listen, for he has a story to tell.
- Memories of good, indifferent and bad- beginning of his tale, the things he once had.
- Stories of hardship, rough being and pain. Times he thought he'd gone mad and nearly insane.
- Beholder of heartaches, amounts of tears more than small. Seemingly feeble shoulders, the willingness to fall.
- Discouraging scenes flash in his eyes but displaying a heart where his truest hope lyes.
- I pray for capability to rewind time, replace his pain with a smile, prove to him that his existence, is more than worth the while.

...such a dream to wish... a path to follow and have the heart to live... hell of a road to walk.

Indeed it is. I actually wrote this less than a week ago about a long time/current friend. He always seems to see or notice the negative in things, quicker than the positive. I wrote this for him and it actually brought tears to his eyes. He kept a copy :)
