Hope A fairly small child, Quiet, she keeps to herself, Meek-natured and often pushed around. She enjoys exploring, Often breaking rules and getting caught. She takes the punishment and does it again. Hope doesn’t back down. She loses and loses, Loses and loses, But doesn’t back down. Faith is her best friend, Hardship her father. Trust is her mother, Fear is her brother. She is ruthlessly bullied, Called names and persecuted. Nearly everyone is against her. She has all the worst enemies. Failure wants her head.
