Hope Resonates
Youth doesn't stop to question if love is true,
they're eager to ignite passion's flame.
For; the need to belong outweighs their fears,
a desire so strong it's hard to ignore.
Sweethearts blinded by the aura of love
shun all reason as darkness zeros in.
For; the dazzling prospects of make-believe
tickles libidos; and mutes silent screams.
Doubt dissects happiness, exposing truths,
as reality tears your hopes apart.
And your heart bears the scars of betrayal
inflicted by promises, stripped of lies.
The hurt that love offers is troublesome,
debatably, more to shun than embrace.
And yet, under the surface of mistrust,
hope resonates; within a youthful heart.
