Hopeless.

Hopeless.

Clinging to hope was foolish

when hope abandoned for despair.

Doubt became fear

distrust from truth,

dislike grew hatred.

Situation hopeless.

A negative development of feelings many people can relate to. "Distrust grew truth" is an interesting line, "dislike grew hatred" awfully true. I like the desperate, somber tone in this writing.

Thank you dear poet Vanessaandthecat it is so, as these feelings grow on their own accord.
