hope can be a funny thing
hope can be a funny thing when it's all you have
it can behave like a jealous lover
leaving angry with contempt
leaving you alone with desperate displays
full front short comings
every "nothing matters" moment evaluated
convictions weakened
principles pulled
it's such a lonely low that's left lingering
big memories in little moments
but eventually, and without trying
just before you step into the fall
some strange change rushes in
changes the angle of your favorite seat
a small glimmer grabs a hold
you feel it like a first time drug
laugh for no reason and check your messages
finally fall asleep without help
wake up with possibilities
vow to live
choose to act
try to change
hope can be a funny thing when it's all you have
