Only hope

Svetlana V Zimina

Vicious piles of lies
Occupied my life,
Mistaking it for a rotting away waste bin.

Countless, hopeless tries
To spear a knife
Through, kill them dead, miserably failed.

Ignored ones cries, -
Suicidal dive
In the pool of questions, gasped in defeat.

Bare necked eyes
Fearlessly strive
For yours to give back nothing but the truth!

Truth, my love!
Our only hope to be...
Live...
