Fading into Shadow, Falling onto Stone.

Hope is something I didn't lack.
Each day I relied on it like a back.

Isn't it strange, the way its always
So cruel, the things hope has to face?

So much threatens the only thing
On which I build each song I sing.

Diminishing each time you speak,
I try to save hopes that now reek
So much of abandonment and loss
Can't you realise you're the cause?
Of my losing my drive to become
Unafraid of words, which for some
Remains nothing great at all, but then
Again, that's because they're blind when
Given more than two phrases.
I cringed, and time now races.
Now I've gotta safeguard hope,
Gotta ignore you, no time to mope.
