Losing hope in hope

Hope, you have led me all astray…

Your wishful prancing
has left me plodding
Your naive faith
has left me questioning
Your promises
have left me holding half-attempts
that feed my fears
and scar like tragedies.

You have left me lost.

Stuck in a place
where chance
skirts the edges of reality.

Stuck in a time
where self-fulfilling prophecies
come half full.

Stuck in a pit
where i warily
count the tears
that each laugh
will cost.
