Clinging To A Hope Poem by Cheri Michelle

Guess we all go through drama at some point in our lives,
It can almost consume us completely,
or the stuff we're going through may blind our eyes.

Sometimes I sit down,
let the tears roll free,
just cry,
and cry,
letting them stain my cheeks.

One day I think I have a chance,
I really think there's hope,
then I'm stuck here,
alone again,
with my heart broke.

The only escape I have
is my dreams,
But even when I sleep
my life still hunts me.
It plays out like a game,
one I can't beat,
and I wonder if I'm meant to,
or will I always be in defeat?

Life's funny the way it goes,
but I'm still clinging to a hope,
that everything will all go through,
and things will work out
the way they were supposed to.
