You cannot hide this in the tags, bestie. This is too lovely to keep a secret.
It may not be apparent to everyone how to easily find out who wrote the poem in the tags, so: @mumblesplash
(an instant-classic example of a Tumblr thread where so many people add value!)
@mumblesplash I would like to humbly request your blessing to have this tattooed one day.
:0000 absolutely!!
@mumblesplash I love your poem, can I set it to music?
YES
[text version:]
Hope is a weapon, hope is a skill
hope is a plant you can care for or kill
hope is a discipline, something you choose
hard to stop looking for, easy to lose
hope isn’t something to have or to take
if you can’t find it, it’s something you make
make it from willpower, make it from spite
learn how to weaponize love in a fight
hope is a shield and a thing to defend
end in itself and a means to an end.
