Searching For Hope

Searching For Hope - Sonnet

    Hope is a lost cause almost everyday.

    A light in a dark room with no way out.

    Holding on to dreams is the only way

    Even if the only feeling is doubt

    Sometimes when things are too much to handle

    Doubt creeps in like a snake on a mission

    Flicking back and forth like a candle

    Dreams invade doubt and you keep on wishin'

    The spark of a dream fans our desire

    Something you do not share with another

    Internal dreams are there to inspire

    To share it aloud it could be smothered

    And sometimes our doubt cannot be controlled

    Sometimes its best that our hope is untold
