Hopeless Hope

Hope

this burning feeling

clawing at me

Changing everything about me

Look at me

Fix me

Change me

Hurt me

Feel me

You

You did this

I looked at you and

I lost myself

I believed in you

I had HOPE

I felt love

I felt pain

I needed

I hoped

That you...would change

That you would need me far more than I needed you

That you would hurt more than I hurt

That you would HOPE more than I HOPED

So that when you left

So that when I HOPED

this wouldn't have been pointless

I HOPED and I still lost
