Hope

Hope is a bad thing; 
once you have it; it never leaves; 
no cure yet to the habit called Hope.
Try razing it down with cruel truth 
or wash it away with disappointing tears. 
But somewhere down there, it still exists 
and crops up its nasty head every dawn 
despite the tear soaked pillows 
and fresh wounds 
of previous injustice. 
The day you kill Hope 
you are one with the eternity.
