Uncertain Hope (a poem)

Uncertain Hope

the corners of the globe draw closer together
yet never have they felt so far apart
traveling nowhere at the speed of light
we drift apart as human beings
connected by the avatars of Imagination
nothing is stable
but Hope remains

i don't know where I'm going
or how i will get there
plans i had made to take me to the future
forge me where I stand
unable to go
regrets and pains tether me still
yet there is Hope

the gulls of Failure cry out
Uncertainty is assured
Doubt strives to remain secure
while Confusion lies in the prow
Sorrow is churned within the wake

there is no solid course nor ground
malleable and unsure is the way before
the compass falters
still Hope remains
it drives me forward
and sustains my steps
when all is uncertain
Hope
