Hope Floats
Frail hearts’ bond fractures
Hope’s glacier slips ‘neath cold sea
Chilled memories drift away
Frozen dreams sever
Forever vows abandoned
Titanic phenomenon
Healing ebbs and flows
Suicidal solitude
Hope struggles, floats to surface
Yes, the sun still shines
Hold close faith’s life preserver
Live to welcome love again
