Poem: Clinging Onto Hope

Clinging Onto Hope

One more door shut in your face.

Another memory you want to erase.

Your heart is hurting.

Emotion fills your mind.

You want to scream.

And, may want it to end.

You find yourself grasping at straws.

Ideas swarm.

Some good and some bad.

Hesitation stops you in its tracks.

You crawl into bed and sleep it away.

You wake up the next day.

You’re faced with a new day.

And, you’re clinging onto hope.
