Hope


If I had no hope, I’d never try again

I’d give up all the love I have, and never try to mend

If I had no hope, I’d stop writing you each day

I’d throw away my pens, and leave my letters in the rain

If I had no hope, I’d disappear without a trace

I’d lose my name and number, and always hide my face

If I had no hope, I don’t know what I’d do

I guess having hope is the reason I love you.

I love to write. I will attend UWG in the fall and major in English. I am a senior at Newnan.
