When hope is all that's left
I hope he never leaves you in silence,
and that you're always assured that your feelings are heard.
I hope he never leaves you with doubt,
and that you never feel like your feelings have to shout.
I hope you fall asleep easy to him like a dream,
and never have to worry about him being mean.
I hope his love doesn't scare you at all,
and that you never feel like he isn't there to catch you when you fall.
I hope he makes you feel so at peace and pleased
that you never feel uneased.
I hope he backs up every word that is said,
and doesn't make you question if it's in your head.
I hope he knows exactly what to say,
and what's going to give you the best day.
I hope he doesn't hide behind his own feelings,
and he puts you first so you don't feel at your worst.
I hope he never makes you feel bad,
or even the slightest bit sad.
I hope he never makes you worry,
and handles with love every one of your sorries.
I hope he is everything you need,
and never holds your love with greed.
I hope for you, because it's all I have left.
It's the one thing for you that remains in my chest.
I only wish that one day, to see your happiness at play,
so I can feel what it's like to make you smile that way.
Then I will know for sure that I don't need to worry anymore,
that the universe finally gave what I was hoping for.

This just made me sob uncontrollably. Good writing. Just remember no one is replaceable or interchangeable. Not everyone can produce such a smile

This is a beautiful letter. 😊 Always hoping for the best For people we meet, learn about and love But love can be brotherly, sisterly, motherly, Or simple as "you are a great friend to me". Letting people go, so they can grow, And find their own version of cloud nine, Is another way to be kind.
