Hope

 She waits -- in a darkened
 room of stillness
 By the moonlight's hypnotic
 rays.
 Echos of maddening
 laughter penetrate the walls
 of lunacy.
 There is no joyful moments
 now, but only
 The desperation of love,
 unknowingly lost forever.
 A tear emerges hesitantly
 from
 An eye that pleads for him
 to appear.
 Surrounding walls ridicule
 the wishful soul
 As they encompass secrets
 of love's restoration.
 nothing will be spared - it is
 over...
 Leaving behind an
 obsession to gain what has
 vanished,
 Slowly destroying the final
 shred of sanity
 Of the once enlightened
 being
 As traces of her beloved
 remain concealed.
