Death of Impossibility

Hope is the death of impossiblity and the beginning of joy kept in the heart of something that is not seen but sure to happen; it is what you hold on to when there's nothing left to clutch on to; it is what awaken dead hearts; it is ignoring any discouragement; it is what makes you pursue something with passion; it is what keeps the ship sailing through the nights; it is what is across the sea that opens in a new world.



"Hope is the thing with feathers 
That perches in the soul, 
And sings the tune--without the words, 
And never stops at all,

And sweetest in the gale is heard; 
And sore must be the storm 
That could abash the little bird 
That kept so many warm.

I've heard it in the chillest land, 
And on the strangest sea; 
Yet, never, in extremity, 
It asked a crumb of me."

~ Emily Dickinson, Hope

"The word which God has written on the brow of every man is Hope."

~ Victor Hugo from Les Misérables

Something I don't Know

If there's something I don't know it's you
Even if I try and try to guess
If there's something I can't find; it's you
Even if I try and try to search

You were destined to be a mystery for a time
If there's something I know it's trust
You were destined to be revealed someday; if at all
If there's something I know it's hope in Him

You are something I don't know
Not because I don't want to
But because I don't have to
You are something I don't know

We always want to know what's next
But there are things we can't know yet
If there is one thing I can't know yet
You are something I can't know yet

Not because I don't want to
But because I don't have to
Not because I don't want to
But because there is "a time for everything."

I fear the day that time comes
But yes when it comes
You can be such a man
A man whom I love
