Hope

Hope is clueless of the expectations of people;
Hence the disappointments! 
Hope taught me control without realizing it. 
I look back at my lived life and wonder where I would be without hope. 
I see Derrida deriding me; 
His glinting eyes stretched like an elastic band. 
His lips were smirking at me. 
I looked around me and saw Hope staring at Derrida; 
My Hope. 
I ran towards Hope and suffocated it with an embrace. 
Hope spoke to me :
"Let go of me, dear". 
I let go. 
My eyes were filled with tears of realization;
Hope wasn't alone; 
Less and Ness were standing next to Hope. 
Then they danced together, merged together into a bright light. 
I could hear Derrida laughing behind me. 
I tried reading my life again;
It was Hopelessness that made me.
"The absence of Hope": I said aloud. 
I found myself smiling;
Derrida was gone. 
I felt lighter and flew away into the beautiful dark sky,
With my sorrows hanging from my hair.
