just wait and see

 

some wait for a
miracle to
happen

others see the miracle in
just waking up
the next
day

some long for
love

others damn love
as a Faustian
curse

some beg for
the pain to
stop

others seek out pain
in order to feel
anything

some fear the dark of the
night and shrink in
terror

others embrace the night
and darkness as they
would a
lover

some hope for a life
as long as mid-
summers
night

others beg for
the mercy of
a quick
death

we all want
something

we all are
searching

searching

searching

against all
hope

but the thing
is

at the end
of the
day

hope doesn't really
give a shit
what we
want
