Hope

Today was a good day. As the sun set on the cluster of houses we feel as if we had succeeded in keeping them away for at least one more day. Sounds from above continued through the night. We sat in fear as it grew louder and louder. As a child i had grown accustomed to the noise. However in this place it was differnt. We were living it. Nothing would ever be the same. We feared that if we were to fall asleep we would dream of things long forgotten. So we sat shivering together in the dark. We didnt exchange names as this made it to personal. It wasnt about comfort or love or the fact that i would never feel this way about anyone ever again, it was about hope.
