Hope

by Kelly Chen - Vernon Barford School, Edmonton AB Jun 21, 2010

Dripping hope
Down the drain
Never to resurface
Like it was before

Who would
Take the hope
Out of every soul
Who would

Each word
Gives a crushing blow
Not caring
Who it strikes down

Hope that someone cared
But none responded
All that you see
Was how the world hated you

So next time
You say something
Think who it may bring down
And for how long
