Hope
Another poem about hope for a contest.
Rated:
E
by
Avg Rating: (5)
Hope is like a sturdy and secure branch,
hanging over quicksand and just out of touch.
Inspiring a desperate fight for survival,
right up until the final empty clutch.

Hope is a cruel, yet welcome necessity,
something I need, just to reach tomorrow.
Disappointed every time it fails to deliver,
I'm sinking in my own self-pitying sorrow.
