Life: A Contradiction

Frustrations come in plenty

Leave me sick and tired

All I hope for is some peace

All I want is to be desired

Standing in the rains, lost

I pray to the Gods

All I hope for is a pair of eyes

All I want is to be seen

I twist, I turn, I laugh, I cry

I need the light and the fire

All I hope for is to inspire

All I want is to be inspired

I dream of an unreal world

Where I can live and fake

All I hope for is some truth

All I want is to break past the tape

Life is unreal

Nothing but a dream

All I hope for is to sleep

All I want is to wake up…

Hope

I can't see the stars tonight

Veiled by silence

I close my eyes

Pray against the odds

All I want is to believe

Guilty I am

For my close ones
I don’t want to be here

I don’t belong here

Here, in the dark alone

Let hope abide
Frustrations can’t weigh me down

Expectations need to make me strong
I have to be alive

Cheerful, radiant and full of life

The black clouds will disappear

Allowing for the sun to shine

The sun will shine again

In all its mighty glory

The breeze will blow again

Spreading calm and peace around

The rains will pour again

Replenishing me, rejuvenating me

The silver lining will be seen

Because now I want

I know there is a ray of hope

For there's always a tomorrow

And the hope of starting new...
