Why Choose Hope?
October 7, 2014
I can see it in your eye,
A feeling I once expressed;
So I’ll say before I die,
This makes me truly depressed.
I see the rays of hope,
Shining brightly from your heart;
Needless thing- I shall not cope,
I would never play your part.
Don’t look forward to tomorrow,
Nothing good comes from it;
Come deeper into sorrow,
Way further in the empty pit.
Anticipation is not the answer,
Do not grow---you will not be made;
Don’t be joyful like a dancer,
Because you whole life will fade.

I wrote this to show people to actually CHOOSE HOPE instead of forsaken it, because sounding depressing like the speaker is a very hard life and no one should go through life without hope.
