[bodytext] => Hope hope is for others it's just a tease offering promises it cant keep like a one night stand there and gone so high, so intense then you wake up and see it was just an illusion but it captured you for a moment and made you want more kept you mesmerised for just long enough that you dared to hope again and again it left you but like a bad penny, it comes back to your life handed to you by well meaning friends they open their purses and give it to you shiny and new you clutch at it like a baby bright and clean with this penny you can buy love, happiness, fulfilment all the things you could wish for you believe and then you try to spend it and realise that hope cannot be bought hope comes from within and if you are poor you are penniless they say to accumulate you must speculate but every time you speculate you lose your purse of pennies fills up and hangs around your neck weighing you down like a heavy stone threatening to drown you the only thing you can do is cut the strings of the purse and throw it away you are poor again but better that than false riches [comments] => 1 [counter] => 202 [topic] => 13 [informant] => nefny [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )
