Tomorrow's Eve (Hopelessness)

That feeling...

 

When you know you have to give it your all.

Even though a desirable outcome isn't assured.

Unable to stall, with your back against the wall.

Pressured,.. So that even reason is obscured.

 

Hopelessness...

 

What would you do, on this eve of tomorrow?

If I told you it only brings more death and sorrow?

Only more hardship, lost loved ones, heartbreak and heartache.

Only more wars, famine, disease and earthquakes.

Tell me... what would you do?

And who would you turn too?

 

..................................

 

Well I suggest you turn to that person right away.

These things take place every single day.

Trust in your hopelessness... it isn't a lie.

Draw strength from your hopelessness... you still have to try.

Lest you die...

A cowards good-bye...

Arms raised to the sky...

Asking why...

 

Why?... Because we are all being deceived.

And were far too ignorant too perceive.

Way beyond reprieve...

On this Tomorrow's Eve...

 

Take heart... And know your not alone.

The future, though hopeless, is not set in stone...

And thus unbeknown...

Perhaps we can atone.

 

Or perhaps not.

It was just a thought...

 

Friend you, zen you, mend you, bend you,

Fake you, snake you, brake you, then take you.

 

Hopelessness...

Feeling kinda dark when I wrote this... Hopefully I was able to convey it proper.

Just awesome, Kyro...your rhyme scheme is tight...yet the message you delivered was absolutely necessary...how can you change the world when you can't question it...I love plays and inter rhyming, as well...you put it down. Miss reading your poems my friend.

This was amazing. Started with coming off quite pessimistic, which is my natural language, but then became something more of optimism and hope being pulled out of the negative/hopeless. This was really brilliantly written.
