Goddamn Hope

Goddamn Hope

A Poem by Kelly A. Brown

 

Even when it feels like

death

is inching toward you

and your blue eyes

are turning

gray

and even though you've tried your best

to stop the

morning

rain and although

you see old wounds

the pink scars where none

truly

lie

and the skin is smooth like

baby a*s

like a soft subtle

wind, and those

make believe morsels of

angst are still

not leaving you

Be.

 

The eternal struggle between

brute cynicality

and

utmost morality

it pulling you

apart.

 

There is still

a nagging feeling of

another tomorrow

another chance to

f**k up

and relive

and make

peace

with the

heart.

 

You try to escape from the

feeling, but it

chases you until

you succumb to it's

wish.

It's another day

and I am happy to say

it's

here.

 

Goddamn hope.

Gets me every

time.

Even if you have no hope, there is always hope that tomorrow is a new day, and possibly a better one. Sometimes I know it is all that keeps me going...hope!
Wonderfully written!
