River of Hope

it happens

negativity

surrounds me

and

I'm drowning again

in yet

another pool of self-doubt

trying my best

not to fall through the

trap of lonliness

yet

it somehow finds me

under the rock

of

hopelessness

as I scream

scratch

claw

my way out

it sees me

unhappiness

engulfs me as I realize

nothing gets better

continuously shying away

from life

love

it always happens

the way

I dream it

the river of lost hope

envelops me

until I am left breathless
