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.
