I was reminded
Of what it means
To be human again
Before we became a
World full of Cynicism
And non-believers.
When it was second nature
To take someone
At their word.
When the word hope
Was more than just
A laughable concept.
When people
Were believed
To be able to change.
I was reminded.
That deep down,
I’m still that human being.
Even if I forgot for a little while.
