Bargaining for hope

 
 
Deep within me I hold anger.
Remnants on that cold December day filled with despair.
You caused me pain.
What I thought was bright is now cloaked in darkness.
I bargained for hope.
I no longer have control.
 
I can not change what I can not control.
The feelings of anger,
Have blinded my sight of hope,
And replaced with despair.
This bitter, broken heart consumed by darkness.
The penetrating pain.
 
I still feel that pain.
These tears I shed I have no control.
Every night I cry in darkness.
Consumed by my bitter anger.
The feeling of despair.
How it feels to have no hope.
 
Where is hope?
I ask in pain.
For there is despair.
I can no longer control,
This raging anger.
I am left in darkness.
 
You showed me darkness.
You left me with no hope.
This heart holds anger. 
Do you understand my pain?
My emotions in your control,
Leave me in despair.
 
I am given despair.
You have shown me darkness.
Will I ever gain control?
I will seek hope.
Time will heal my pain.
I will let go of anger.
 
My anger for your infidelity left me in despair.
I feel pain in lonely darkness.
I bargained for hope, and lost control.
