HopeFloats

Hope. Hope is what keeps me going everyday. Without hope life would be mundane. Day in day out. Doing the same thing with never any chance at happiness or change. Hope: to expect with confidence. One of my favorite things ever said about hope is this: Hope sees the invisible, feels the intangible, and achieves the impossible. Today I would like to have hope. Because there is a promise of you, the promise that I will finally be in your arms. It's the day I've been waiting for since I left you. Florence & The Machine put it like this: The fabric of your flesh, pure as a wedding dress. Until I wrap myself inside your arms I cannot rest. I have not found anything more accurate to express how I miss you. I'm driving myself crazy with hope because I would rather be in denial about what the future holds and be happy for the moment than spend an eternity knowing full well that I will never again lay eyes upon you. So I hold onto hope with a tight grip, like a child holds onto a toy. And I will be selfish with you. I will be selfishly hopeful because if I don't have hope in my fucked-up, busy, disappointing world than I have nothing.
