Glimmer of Hope

A sanctuary among those called friends

a place far away from the pain 

she could never escape.


Yet happiness is fleeting,

 a wave in an ocean 

never guaranteed to come back.


There is little to prepare for the storms, 

even less for a parting of a shore.


As sad as it may be, 

this one hope in life 

was taken away 

almost instantly.


The friend she loved most 

had grown distant.


Their meetings had become limited,

their once vibrant flower field dimming.


It is a part of life after all, 

to lose a friend.


You'll surely gain others 

along the way.


However, 

she was precious.


A friend she had hoped to keep 

until the very end.


The one who showed her 

there was something to hope for, 

even if hope 

comes with a price to pay.
