Hope Doesn't Belong In The Dark

I look down with tears in my eyes
Looking at that picture perfect smile
What I would do to smile like that again
How innocent I looked
So vulnerable to the world
But know i’ve learnt what the definition of struggle is
An endless battle with yourself
And hoping against all hope
That one day you will win
That you will rise above everything else
And never get pushed down again
But the worst part is that little hope you have
That little bit of hope that keeps you going
Only to shrink every time you get hurt again
And a part of me knows that one day
There will be no hope left
That I will wither away
A hopeless cause
Until I see the light again
