Wishing and Hoping
"Wishing and hoping
Is like screaming
In your head to
No one and nothing."
Is like screaming
In your head to
No one and nothing."
Author's Note
So many times in my life I have wished and hoped often desperately to no avail. No matter how much wishing and hoping there is, it is all a damned head trip and a joke.

Dear E.
I so agree. Your poem reminds me how much hope can be worse than despair. Wonderfully written and relatable on so many levels. H🌷

The lines "Wishing and hoping is like screaming in your head to no one and nothing" capture a sense of futility and frustration often associated with unfulfilled desires. When we wish and hope for something, especially without taking action, it can feel like our desires are merely echoing in the void, unheard and unaddressed. This sentiment highlights the importance of not just wishing or hoping, but also actively pursuing our goals and dreams. It serves as a reminder to turn our aspirations into tangible actions, as mere wishes and hopes alone rarely lead to meaningful change or fulfillment.

Again, Louismatteo349 thank you kindly for your insightful comments. And, yes actions, I did pursue to no avail or not to my satisfaction, thus the poem. Thank you for the read.
