Well, you most definitely have a way with words. You're able to take a simple sentence and absolutely bring it to life in the head of the reader.
This almost seems like it should be called "Land of Hope" - that phrase seems to pop up alot in this piece.

This line below really blew me away..
"What's lost is lost, but how far gone are the hearts of youth?"
Lovely!
