The land of Hope is nowhere in sight,
It still continues to elude me.
I search only for the guiding light,
The light of promise I will never see.
I have lived countless lives in vain
Finding no peace for my weary soul.
I found nothing from which to gain,
And the delay has taken its toll.
I cannot survive much longer,
In my boundless prison cell.
If only I were stronger,
I could leave the depths of Hell.
I scream in anguish without a voice,
I have already made the fatal choice.
