Lost Hopes

Hopes are great things
until they are gone
the death of a hope
is like the death of a child
you made it
nurtured it
then on day its all gone
lost and unsure
where do you go
what do you say
darkness engulfs your existence
you return to what you know
back to your habits
the ones that got you here
sitting alone, staring at nothing
mind filling with thoughts
heart filling with emotions
a sea of loss and emptiness
a dead sea
a sea of pity and pain the one you filled
filled to drown in
drowning, alone, in a sea of
lost hopes
