I am hope.  
I bear the marks of struggle.  
I carry the weight of bruises.  
I am hope.  
I have faced powerful blows  
and been dragged through the dirt.  
I am hope.  
You may think I have fallen,  
but I am still standing.  
I am hope.  
I am not elegant.  
I am not flawless.  
I have fought fiercely and endured pain.  
I am Hope.
