I have hope
Hope to me looks like her, looks like life, looks like light I just wanna do things right and not ruin them and fight all the time Every night I sit up and think why My day to day feels like a dream - it’s sci-fi I hate how my own thoughts control my decisions I don’t have the precision To pinpoint the issues that come with my indecision It’s like I’ve become so overwhelmed with emotion I can’t even trust that I’ve been forgiven now I’m messed up, far from good condition I’m losing this fight like UFC - TKO by submission It’s real life no belt at the end, beaten down without permission But I’m working on this stuff - just repetition
Learning it’s hard, But it keeps me sane Like a nice smoky char, to mask my pain I love how the rain, feels on my skin Yet I’m still where I remained, trapped like a sin I don’t wanna feel like that again, It’s somewhere I’ve been Life’s a glass pane, can see my success But can’t quite get to the end, I smoulder distress My fires been put out, but my embers burn bright There’s light inside that shines through the night Cause I found someone that gives me butterflies She makes my heart skip a beat and gives me smiles Love shouldn’t be a game why does there seem to always be trials
I love her I really do She makes me feel complete, brand new And see things from a different point of view The glisten and shine in her eye The sparkle when she’s shy she’s there to catch me I give her wings to fly
I’m at a cross road but there’s only one direction It’s to follow her she gets all my attention I stop and look at my reflection I can’t see myself without her I’m filled with imperfection But she makes the correction I want and need to feel complete and perfection I’m sorry about my over protection But I’d rather not add to a recollection Of all the heartbreak broken down mental states I don’t want another lesson where feelings are put to waste I get a floaty feeling in my stomach when you grab my waist I said I wouldn’t date, and I’m scared to be replaced But I have hope that things will fall into place I have hope in us.
Brody (Simpl3), 15 Papakura I was inspired to write this poem after I met someone who makes me happy and is an amazing friend, girlfriend and person in general.
