Lingering Hope (poem)
Each day retracing this one memory
This place where her dreams had faded away
Yet lingering hope still whispers today
That face in shadows perhaps it is he
-
Each day embracing when love had its way
With welcoming arms a safe place to flee
When promises fade to sheer misery
He never would leave he’d never betray
-
A world full of doubt became her best friend
Live just for today and forget the past
-
They hurled at her reasons for hope to end
Forget foolish love and all you’ve amassed
-
She twirled mid this world which tried to pretend
That it was his voice returning at last
