I Have Hope

I have love, But no one to love except in my dreams. I have hope, But the future is such a transient thing. I’m loving everything I have, But what emptiness I have cannot return my love. I can love life, But my life is but a hallucination of hope. I hope someone in time will come, But I have no hold on time. Lord, help me learn how to hope, Because the future is never here.
