Prayers and Hopes

After waking, 

angry news or 

deep reflection.

In you,

a longing
for connection.

On the commute, 

reckless speeds or

gentle rides.

In you, 

the choice resides.

Throughout the day,

glasses empty or 

overflowing.

In you,

a sight
for growing.

Coming home,

dark and light.

In you,

day and night.

Bedlamp on,

prayers and hopes.

In you,

prayers and hopes.
