Hopelss Poem by Devon Malonson

'I'm sorry' you say
even though you know
it doesn't matter anyway.
You tried so hard
to make things right
and even though it's hopeless,
you still continue to fight.
You've done everything in your power
yet it's still not enough.
You pray every night
hoping at least one person is listening.
You put up with so much s***
yet you continue to smile.
You know no one understands,
and you can only hope
things start to look up.
Yet in your heart you know
eventually it's all gonna blow.
You can't continue to live this way
but old habits are hard to break,
yet still you refuse to change
for everyone else's sake.
You live your life for others.
Ignoring your own needs.
Now your hopeless,
and have no clue how things need to be.
