Hope and Fear


There are two emotions that have an impact on me and maybe on other as well.

One is fear and the other is hope

Visually for me 

Fear is like holding a bomb that you didn't know was fake 

you tried to be careful with it 

you follow instructions to not detonate it 

you bite your teeth while you walk 

you get nervous or anxious 

you end up being rude to others who think its funny 

you might even get angry at yourself or others 

you might get sick symptoms 

only to find out that no matter what you do or say or act 

the bomb is never doing to detonate 

because its fake

And 

Hope is like the rising sun 

that when its starts to rise you can feel its warm and comfort 

that even if you had a bad night 

the Sun signals

 A fresh start  

 A new beginning 

 A new chapter 

That no matter what happen in the past 

its over now 

Because a new day has arrive.
