Glint

It's the way the sunlight hits the ground
The glint in my eyes is preserved by it
And then it was the way he said "Hope"
After living through the bleakest of life
I can only believe it's worth feeling
I'm not longer clenched in life's fist
            I hold my own hand
    And I leave the glint in my eyes
I save a smile for when I need one
Like when I forget how one day
    I hide an extra glint for my eyes
In the sunlight hitting the ground
