Hope Will Not Make Me Happy Today Poem by Theorem The Truth Serum

I can't stand feeling
That time is running out
But I do
And I don't think there is much
That I can do about it
It is engraved into me
It is apart of my genetic structure
I'm in a panic searching for a heart
That is not beating
Well it is
It's just not in earshot yet
I can complain and complain
But where is that really going to get me
Well I'll tell you where
Because I have been there before

It gets me thinking about
How life is hopeless
And I am hopeless
But in all actuality
It is not and I am not
But I am not one who believes in hope
Hope is a long term word
It is the future
And right now my mind is fixed on the present
Hope will not make me happy today
