Hope's Bitter Mirage

Loneliness is a cruel mirage It leaves you yearning to be quenched Yet as you get closer and closer The possibility vanishes, but hope never dissipates That hope keeps you thirsty That thirst leaves you lonely That loneliness leaves you longing That longing leaves you empty That emptiness leaves you desperate That desperation leaves you to hope That hope gives you hurt But you'll never learn So you freeze. You freeze your heart No more hope. No more Mirage.
