The Fall of Hope
I returned after weeks of departure,
And found no one to greet me,
No one genuine with a smile,
None were happy, I felt,
Too out of place at that time.
I realised soon after,
How lonely I’ve become,
Those I had held close,
Were gone with their back turned away.
There were days they cried
and wept on my shoulder,
While I gave them
A reason to smile again,
Now those are the ones turned away,
With no remorse in their eyes.
“True and real are the words of fault,
For this world so fake,
Cuz’ real are those,
Who have dealt with this pain.
It isn’t just a grudge of betrayal,
But the Fall of Hope.”
