I reached into
my bag of wishes
to sustain me
for one more night
To my horror
there was a hole
in the bottom
and my hope
was nowhere in sight
I quickly glanced down
thinking, praying
it had landed below
but after searching for hours
I came up empty handed
and so
I tossed the black bag
with the hole
into a nearby tin
comforted that
if my loss was found
someone else's hope
could begin
