Resurrecting Hope

by Jemma   Sep 11, 2008


Blood of my blood
How can this betrayal find true words?
For none are worth the weight of this atrocity

How I wish for life the way I'd dreamed it
But that dream keeps on floating away
I know that nightmares are more renowned in memory
Keep resurfacing maliciously, my unpleasant thoughts gone stray

How can I instil again the understanding of familial love?
Blood of my blood
I will love you to the end of my time

How can I erase the actions of a man of weak mind and weak morality?
That he should fall short for mortality?
This man I never will be
I'd ask for death if one day I could be
Don't you know that I love you?
Truly

Never again will they hurt you if I had my way
But tell me how I can resurrect the hope again

Once again words cannot explain the hurt and the pain and the distrust we have felt
But know blood of my blood you are mine to cry for
Mine to die for
And mine to persist in hoping for
If I can only muster the strength to keep fighting your despair

How can I resurrect your hope again?
