Hope Springs Eternal

Hope springs eternal!

I've heard those words before

from someone, somewhere.

With every nightfall

a new dawn beckons.

A new life is just around the corner.

I've heard all those words before

from someone, sometime.

I used to believe in them

One time.

Now they wash over me

Like a tidal wave of hate.

Hope springs eternal?

That's a lie.
