After
awhile everyone comes back home again
After
awhile sometimes you just don't care
Unless
there is reason for hope
which
there rarely is
and
After
awhile some people open their eyes
After
awhile some never do unless
there
is reason for hope
and
After
awhile half truths turn into lies
After
awhile lies leave scars
Unless
there is hope
without
reason
and
After
awhile smiles become cold masks
After
awhile facades crumble
unless
there is blind
unreasonable
hope
and
Unless
it is blind
unreasonable
hope
After
awhile will wither and die
After
awhile life resumes its petty pace…
