Hope


I'm never satisfied even though I have too much. But still I want these things. These dreams. They mean, what? I look around and ask what do you want? I can see what you tell yourself. I can see what you believe. I see what you can't see in yourself and you do the same. For me, right? So what's left. Think about existence. We compliment each other to keep the truth covered. It's undefined what we want in this. Because not even you know who you are. Or do you? Truth be told by no man. Not the Christian nor the Saint. We're sinners by nature, we ate the fruit. This isn't the truth they told you. They lied. I'm out here on my own. You think you're not. There's things forgotten that they fought for. Your eyes have never seen these. I pray to God your kids don't. I live quotes. Feel me. Weak minds have no hope. There's no love for no-shows. I hope that I don't say I told you so.
