Try Sending Flowers

Don't give up on hope.
It hasn't given up on you
To spite
The places
Where it's hiding.
It's shy you know,
Shyer than you might think
For one of the principal virtues.
It does not feel the need
To show up upon demand.
In fact, it prefers 
To be wooed like a woman. 
Wouldn't you?
So next time you think
You've lost her,
Try sending flowers,
The flowers of belief.
There is nothing more persuasive 
To the invisible
Than to be seen.
