DONT LIE TO ME

That is what hope looks like
Is it floating or flowing?
Streaming or shining?

So elusive
I try to grab it
I reach out my hand
Outstretched

I am more than this
I tell myself
Why have I become this
shadow version of myself?

I catch a glimmer
of light
Like a gem
It blankets throwing light

I can dream again!
I can sing again!
I can love again!
I can live again!

Hope
I tell myself
Still lives here
Don't lie to me
Darkness that you are
