Love Poem: The Hole Inside

The Hole Inside

My soul seems to be lacking
All my trust is slowly fading
It seems to be abandoning me
My hope went into hiding

I always seem to push away
The people I try so hard to love
But I always see the best
In the ones I don't hold close

I'm lucky enough I know
To have the friends I do
They put up with my craziness
All these changes in my moods

I should thank my lucky stars
To have all that I need
But somewhere deep inside
I just feel that something's missing

What I need is hope
How do I get that back?
The problem seems to be
Once hopelessness get you
It's a deep hole to crawl out of
