A Grain of Hope

 

1.   I am tired and I’m going to bed.

Tomorrow is different.

Tomorrow,

I find the most beautiful girlfriend,

The sweetest honey on Earth.

Tomorrow,

I come clean and clear.

I quit smoking,

I stop boozing.

Tomorrow, I am free and rich: 

Just wait.

 

2.   Hate me, hurt me, humiliate me;

I still won’t kill your grain of hope.

Some Gods like to give hope,

Some deny it completely.

Who is more compassionate?

Who is wiser?

I know this grain of hope is oiling my wheels. 

I know I can still move mountains, divert rivers.

I can still fall in love, be rude, and forgive.

I won’t kill your grain of hope; 

Your grain of faith!
