Speak
Sometimes hope is the smile on the face of a child with a bruised eye.
Sometimes love is a pledge of ‘forever’ to someone who is dying.
Sometimes ‘tragedy’ sounds like ‘heartbreak’ with three syllables.
Sometimes life lasts only long enough to say “Hello”.
Sometimes future means now and tomorrow never comes.
‘Sometimes’ can mean never, and ‘never’ can mean always.
Maybe hope is love, and love is tragedy.
Maybe tragedy is life, and life is the future.
Maybe the future is sometimes, and sometimes is never.
Maybe never, is always.
And we can always hope for the future.
But if the future doesn’t bring hope, maybe it will bring love
Or tragedy,
Or life.
Sometimes hope is a teacher who smiles everyday.
Sometimes love is spending hours grading papers and smiling when there isn’t any red.
Sometimes tragedy is a car wreck, or a pay dock, or student who doesn’t care.
Sometimes life is day to day and paycheck to paycheck.
Sometimes the future sits before you with bored eyes and gum in its mouth.
Sometimes hope is the courage to speak out and not care who hears, or maybe hope is giving the speaker a voice.
Thank you for the Voice.

Sounds like you writing about your life in the new school. You can definitely hear your voice even while reading it to oneself.
