Hope

I dwell in the unkept crevices of your mind,

Ever-present,

Always ready to assist in your

Hatred, hurtred, and resentment;

For all things, to all things, for all beings.

I awake on your darkest days,

The days your lips don’t form a pleasant image.

These are the days your lips bring me further into existence.

The days you are undisciplined, unmotivated, and unamused.

From all you have been given and from all that you see on this earth.

I am energized by your condemnation, complacency and hypocrisy.

Rarely do I surface to the forefront of your mind.

I prefer to hide within the deep confines of your hearts eye.

I feed off your insecurities, ineptitude and inconsistencies.

Embrace Me.

Embrace Me.

Embrace Me.

I will never leave your side.

I refuse to leave your side.

You won’t allow me to leave your side.

I am your comfort.

Although others try, I see past their lies,

I’ll be with them and they’ll be with me till the day they expire.

It is your fate to never escape,

No matter the day, from the time you wake to the time you lay down.

Down,

Down,

Down,

I am the shadow cast upon your crown.

There are those who wholeheartedly believe they can be what they desire most,

they persist in the unseen.

Delusional as it may seem, they drown me out with vivid thoughts and images of light.

With that said, not all persist, and that’s because it is the darkness that they miss.

no matter how short or long the life I stay with them till their end.

Good or bad days I stay deeply embedded into the psyche of all beings.

I bide my time, so that I may resurface to the front of their minds to live a lack filled life.

For every one that escapes ten come slumping back to me.

I’ll never leave.

I’ll hide and wait till you come back to me.

They always come back to me.

Wont you come back to me?
