A Wisp of Hope I spent seemingly endless hours Just lying there on that metal table Shivering My will to live Slowly dying out Like embers fallen from a bonfire I felt hopeless Yet at the same time I felt nothing.
How could I? The end of the one good thing in my life Had brought on the beginning Of my very own end.
I wasn't sure how your father felt, Hope.
He seemed to be masking his emotions Especially when he was aware Of my watching him.
I couldn't tell Whether he felt any sort of Regret Or pity Towards his test subject, But was too frail To question him With anything more than A simple, Expressionless stare.
I lay there In a daze Hiding from myself The painful truth; That the end was nigh. I could feel myself fading away All the light Disappearing from within me.
And that was when I started hearing your voice inside my head. I thought I was going crazy, Simply losing my mind Because as a wise person once told me:
"Don't believe everything you hear."
But I wasn't crazy. Delirious, maybe, But not crazy.
I had a wisp of your voice Inside my head And somehow I knew That it wasn't going away Anytime soon.
For even though the darkness Was closing in on me, I still had a pinprick of light That little wisp of hope To guide my way.
