HOPE DASHED! DREAM LOST!

 


Each day we wake

Believing it will get better 

Hoping to hear good news 

But the sad News is

No one is making any effort to make it better 


We are just there

With our wishful thinking 

Holding onto the lies they told us 

Watching like spectators

Cheering like cheerleaders


We are just existing 

But not living 

Ours lives like our shadow

That leaves us in the dark

Dark moments

More than the bright moments 



We cannot complain

We cannot protest 

We cannot speak out

We are just there


What stories shall we tell our children yet unborn 

What shall we say to the young ones asking so many questions 

How did we get here?

How can we opt out ?


This is our story 

This is our dirges 

This is the situation 

This is what we have become 


So we wake each day

Whether good or bad

Under rain or sun

Pursing dreams that we cannot wake up to

And climbing the ladder of success that we don't know where it leads 


Alas we can hold on the fact that we are ALIVE


And there's hope


Hope dashed!

Dream lost!


But We Move.......

Until we get to our final destination of accomplishment 


We are not giving up!
