Desire has obvious primitive evolutionary merits such as "moving the
body towards food or sexual counterparts" that can easily be found in
non-human life forms. It can be triggered by a simple structural state
of the body such as an empty stomach, which is quite different from
how love, pride, etc. would arise.

Theorists disagree among themselves as to which emotions are to be
considered basic:

http://changingminds.org/explanations/emotions/basic%20emotions.htm

I'd say hope is more complex than desire. Desire doesn't necessarily
have a temporal implication as hope does. Future vindication would be
significant for hoping something but not for desiring something.
