Let Hope Float

Beginnings can be scary
Endings are often sad
It’s the stuff in the middle that matters
That’s where we find love at


So with each new beginning
As we reach a fork in the road
Take time to pause and remember
To make room to let hope float


Love can hurt you when you least expect it to
It can bruise your very soul
And despair can overwhelm you
In the fight to be made whole


Face the fear..reach out your hand
Dare to let love grow
Trust that someone really understands
And make room to let hope float


It’s not easy..this business of giving up
Your heart’s guardian one you hardly know
But surrender yields treasures..the reward is love
When you make room to let hope float
