Moore Hope Poems

I am lost in a room with people all around.
I smile at them, nod my head, but do not make a sound.
Even though there are people everywhere I still feel all alone
I climb high up in the stands above searching for the one whom makes my heart moan.
...

I am confused what more is there to say
I have feelings for someone who cannot love me in that way.

The feelings that I have are hurting me inside
...

For many years I lived in the dark

Waiting for that magic spark
...

My mind is adrift a boat lost in the sea
With so much water around yet I am still thirsty

I see fins in the water just waiting for me to fall
...

Memories of you face a concerned and frightening stare
The paleness of your skin, the oxygen mask that you must wear

Tell me, is this going to be alright?
...

As I looked up into the dark moonlit night
A twinkling little light caught a glimpse in my sight

Is this the star I have been waiting for year after year?
...

As I sit here alone at night
I think about giving up on my fight
I was used once so why not again
All I ask for is for all this pain to end.
...

A crashing sound in the dark of night
I wake up suddenly shaking relentlessly in fright

Is it he who is breaking in?
...

He flies in the air with his wings spread out wide
In a circle he goes in a beautiful stride
He screams out loud to show his pride
Over the ocean he swoops missing the tides
...

I love him so much but he does not seem to care
It is not me he wants, it is her he wants to be near

I was once his wife, I gave him his only son
...
