A Lonely Hope Poem by Joshua Gallatin

find yourself nightly thinking
creating doubt and uncertainty
a negative self consciousness
is the only remaining hope
darkness overcomes your innermost
small obstacles become large walls
then you build your own
closing a heart you want caressed
the love you search
becomes to much
it is the beginning and end
everything you want is out of reach
break down a wall and open a chance
the time has come
let your heart breathe
believe in yourself at last
it may not be much
but believe in this lonely hope
and a beautiful smile
will not quickly pass
cuddle yourself
and love your friends
let no one deny
the success at your hands
