A Chance Taken
I took a chance,
and hope was duly murdered.
Lovely dreams were scattered,
a hopeless creature prowling.
Anger replaced by sorrow,
and then remains an emptiness.
Yet even after such heartbreak
there is a revived hope.
Like a phoenix from the ashes
shall rise with new life
a reborn hope.
I will try again,
despite the hurt inside.
