Silver linings

Three months is too long

to hold onto hope,

But here I am clutching it in my fist

like it's my very will to live. 

I need to set it free,

I'll watch it fly across the sky,

Wings soaring high

like the love we never shared. 

And if I need to get some closure,

The hope will still be there,

Because hope can never leave

even if you've set it free. 

I'll hold onto those silver linings

like I've done my entire life,

Something new might be blooming,

And maybe this hope won't die.
