An Attempt To Cope

When I'm looking for a way to cope,

The first thing I can do is hope.

Breathing in the deepest of breaths,

Trying to forget too many regrets.

Going nowhere high in this lonely room.

I'm falling slowly into the deepest of gloom.

Can't seem to erase you off my mind.

Constantly feeling like I robbed you blind.

I'll be sending out the best intentions,

Hoping it will soon be something I'll hear you mention.

 

-Kitty Kradler
