Hope is an evil thing

Hope is an evil thing


Life’s journey becomes a thing we endure after long enough alone.  We plod along and at times run, either from or toward something.  We travel with others when their path and ours share the way.  They leave to follow another path or their journey ends and once again we continue alone.  Then one day while walking down that road something just ahead shines.  It catches your eye and you begin to think perhaps I can reach that thing and then this will be better.  The journey will have a purpose.  Sometimes the shiny thing travels with us sometimes it is on another path and we only catch a glimpse of it.  But it always leaves and is replaced with hope and again we travel.  Waiting like junkies for the next shiny thing.

hope is evil
it destroys people's souls
it makes them think that they will get what they wish for
and most of the time it's out of their reach. Just out of reach.
They're hopes are crushed
they are crushed
hope is evil
