Keeping a hope alive. . Like a burning candle, In a stormy night. Wanting a wound open. . Just to have it bleeding And aching to feel Alive. Burning desires. .. And holding on to them tight. Passion Flickering ... Just beneath the eyes. A loose end.. Like an unfinished song. . Broken Verse and jumbled melody, But going back to it again After some time. A goofy smile. .. To hold on to the last sanity, And to survive through the night. The positive attitude, Keeping every set back on side. Going through the motion, But working towards making it alright. One day ...... One of these days. .. There will come a time, And that time will be mine.
