82. When You Open and Close Your Eyes

Hope's p.o.v

We stand on the edge of greatness

or on the verge of disaster. You are

responsible for the angel or monster living

inside your head either way. I care enough to

join you on this crazy bumpy ride. I am

close enough to the fire that I bleed internally

and externally. My heart is at your mercy.

I fear that I may lose you at any moment.

When you open and close your eyes,

do you see paradise on the other side?
