Hope Is...

poet Anonymous


for someone to love me for me
not just on the outside but inside
love all of me not just the good
someone that sees all my flaws
but still loves me more each day
someone who will look into my eyes
see the love deep in my soul

In our waking breaths-
With our eyes opened to the sky,
And our worlds are ahead of us,
The life we look to is Hope.
To live, love, hold,
Give, take and treasure-
All that we are in this world.

One dollar, crumpled
Six number quick pick
A mailbox full of unpaid bills
And a parking ticket
Six more minutes of suspense
Can't wait, can't breathe,
Can't believe
I didn't win!

(Next week I'll do it again)

Hope is a tear
running backwards
to its original position
until it's momentarily
forgotten.

Hope is...

Watching the good people judge, patronize and
comment on the priest's pedophilic appearance
as they say amen.  
   
                                    ...that hell waits somewhere.

Hope is..

Like a deadbeat wish
Waiting for failure to collide
A simple little kiss
Right before he lies...

poet Anonymous

One Day

One day
it wont be
just a Hope
It will
become reality
I wont be
looking
for the right one
He'll be
looking for me
The sparkle
will return
and the tears
I wont
have to hide
I will
find the
sweetest love
And the
happiness
I lost...
He will find

This Life    

I hope
to be something , in this life
not just a nothing , with an ex wife  
to actually cut it
without blunted knifes ,
for my bread to be buttered
on even one side ,
my keys to be mine
oh , to see
when I'm blind .

poet Anonymous

Hope is what I seek each night.
Day gone past, tired as usual-
Wonder how people can be so cruel.
Lost at times in a lack of focus-
Without some hope- I will blow this.
Off to sleep, an exhaustive end
but still each morning
I find hope again.

The secret of seeing

Is like a pearl of great price

Although the pearl may be found

It may not be sought

Illumination comes to those who wait

But is always a gift

And a total surprise

I cannot cause light

The most I can do

Is to put myself in path of its beam

And hope that I am going

The right way

HOPE

Hope is a bitch
I just need to vent
I don't care if it rhymes
has pretty lines or defies
everything....
poetic
as I don't get it
Every time that lush
shows up..
All it does is fuck me up!
Sitting like a foolish giraffe
Too stupid to see my own ass
So if anyone here knows of Hope
Tell that wench-
to remain a ghost.
