Hope for 

something less. 

Hope on 

finding contentment. 

Hope for 

some kind of surrender. 

~ 

Both wish 

to see real faces. 

Both wish 

for arms to hold. 

Both wish 

to believe the lies. 

Both wish 

for exit to the inferno. 

~ 

Both pray 

for a halt to confusion. 

Both pray 

to never forget. 

Both pray 

for the light of day. 

Both pray 

for the flame to cool. 

~ 

Both wait, dream, 

hope, wish, 

and pray 

to still be loved by 

~ 

The other.
