Hope Decayed

The way I feel Is yuck, it’s ick Words can’t describe This kind of sick Piercing lesions Beneath the flesh Lack of reasons It’s so complex Words, exhausted Excuses, used Skin has softened From blind abuse It’s decayed hope From silent vibes The boat, afloat Too late to ride

One of my favorite sayings is that hope is a fools paradise. It usually never works out.
