lost cause


Strength is now only a word

Mock me again

I know now that love is lost 

Dreams are ashes in the air

All that is beauty inside is no longer

It is now a rugged mountain 

Of no hope

Solitude among thousands

Fingers pointing and laughing 

The help that came to rescue did the same

They came in groups and they came in the form of my race

Lost cause is what said mom

I set out into the world in a month

But I can no longer be 

What I dreamt of in my dreams
