Hope
She
Looks for
Hope when she
Is in pain. But hope
Seems to run away because
You can't find something if you
Don't believe in it. She starts to lose
Her battle against her misery. The voices
In her head tell her she has lost, she needs
To give up the fight. She believes the voices
And begins to say her goodbyes. Just as she
Is about to pull the trigger, she see's a light
Of hope as she closes her eyes. The people
She will leave behind are in the back
Of her mind. Slowly, hope creeps
Around the corner to save
Her one last time.
