Hopes.

My hopes are stupid and misplaced

And no one can tell me that

You could someday see me like I see you

All the love songs tell me I should hold on

And

All the movies tell me to persevere.

I’ve cried all the tears left in me

And I remembered that

My heart and soul can only take so much

I can say with confidence that

I’ve fallen for someone who will never feel the same

And it’s not true that

Any possibility of good can happen

My heart will stay alone

And I’m lying when I say

Happiness is possible

This is my first time writing a reverse poem. It was so hard!
