Hope for Hope
I don't feel like moving
let alone speaking
Yet I'm running away from my problems
My self-assurance is leaking
Out of my shortcomings-
While inside my heart is shrieking.
I can never be what you wanted
and I'm feeling brainless because I flaunted
Something I thought I had
but never had in the first place.
It'll always be her
and it'll always burn no matter how many times it happens.
It's her before me
And that's permanently how it will be.
I'll just keep coming back.
And secretely hoping that the hope for hope in my face
Might one day become the actual thing.

The concept is freshing.. a hope for hope. And its good you can put the situation into perspective believing --'hoping'-- that the outcome will be in your favour.
Great job, nice read.

Present with colour vibrating through... Some reaching in places. Could be broken differently to steady the flow. No need for punctuation with shortened format. Save it for when you need/want it to mean something. Keep Grindin CAOS737
