hope is a silly little thing.

dreams and goals and — hope —
it's all something to laugh at

and laugh i do
because today i got my hopes up —
and today my hope was crushed

and i can't think of today —
without breaking down

i dream too much
i dont have her to ground me
i hope too strongly —

i hope and i hope and i hope
i tell myself to stop
i tell myself my hopes are too high
i tell myself i'll be disappointed

and i am
because despite all these warnings i give myself
all these times i tell myself to accept my reality
all these times i repeat
stop dreaming stop dreaming stop dreaming

i hope.
