Searching for truth where dishonesty reigns Insecure lies leaving blood soaked stains Believing in words spilt onto a page Trusting with faith what reason cant gauge Hope but a memory, a far distance to travel The heart ponders questions a mind can't unravel The mystery of forever is reflected in doubt a riddle for which there is no way out For the brightest of stars can still crash and burn a self sacrifice with no lesson learned Trailing but memories of dreams still unspoken revealing the vileness of a soul far too broken But if faith and reason should ever align Hope can perhaps make a small ember shine
