    Hope-Loss

    HOPE-LOSS
    BY: POETIC_MUSE

    what is ‘Hope-loss’? it is what is felt when one’s hopes have been destroyed, when suffering occurs and one looks for other things to fill the void of what they were once hopeful about,
    it is screaming out loud that one’s hope has run out!!
    it’s looking here and there but finding nowhere to hang your dream
    so it goes to the waste side, never to be seen,

    Hope-loss is what many of our people incurred
    when their dreams of freedom where destroyed right in front of their eyes, watching brother, mother’s father’s die due to the color of their skin,
    Hope-loss is the state this country’s in…
    jobs disappearing while pregnant teens are fearing they will never cut it in this world with a kid
    performing self abortions
    through drug inducing doses
    then committing suicide for what they did…

    Hope-loss is the definition of the pain a woman who’s been cheated on sustains,
    it’s the anger that produces rage that eventually leads to murder cause the heart she gave
    became a piece of a game
    and the players are now six feet under!

    Hope-loss is not to be confused with Hopeless cause less still means it exists,
    loss means that suffering has occurred, CASUALTIES ARE present, its dark and it’s cold and the weak are unable to stand it,
    their Hope is loss, and there’s no way to regain it,
    and if you don’t check out, you have no choice but to sustain it..
    it is the bottom of the pit’s bottom
    the place you can’t afford to be,
    Hope-loss is the end of ones soul..
    that’s why.. it will never.. be me!!!

    Hope Loss is truly amazing - it defines the true meaning of a person losing all hope and the results of such a situation - I truly loved it .... KD

    This for me its more of a muse... Something that makes me go Hmmm? I especially like 'Hope-loss is not to be confused with Hopeless cause less still means it (something) exits' I like it, God said "Love suffered Long," a retrospective thought as it relates this writing, I would say... 'Hope Suffers Long,' and whoever rated this a '1' has Loss-hope!

    To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
