Hope

The hopes and dreams of shattered tomorrows
The desperation after taking a cheap blow
The electricity crackling along your skin dancing on your fingers
No matter how far gone your mind still lingers
You breathe in the stringent acrid smell of your strongest emotions
As humans we are not all the characters of our own destruction
I'm the leader of my life everyday I walk my stride
I look over and everyone tries to find their time
The rain pitter patters as it hits the ground
I try to cry out live with no regrets but I don't make a sound
A life without regrets wouldn't be worth living
Because life is about loving and falling,being happy, and breaking
Regrets called by another name may be as accurate
Hindsight is 20/20 so learn and move on we all make mistakes
It's time for you to choose what road to take
To live and love fall and get hurt
Or let your life be small spurts
Opening for a moment thinking about chance
But closing up without a subtle hinderance
Laugh and cry
Live and die
Take everyday as unique as the one before
Because life has something in store
