False hope

So I sort of only write poetry for myself when I'm feeling really sad or have other strong feelings. And I thought why not start sharing them. Since I usually keep them to myself, this terrifies me, but here goes.

False hope

You gave me false hope

Over and over

And I actually believed we could make it

That we could be

But now you told me the truth

The truth I refused to believe

The truth I already knew

In a way you set me free

I now have clarity

I can move forward

And won't ponder to wait
