Prisoner to Hope

A prisoner to hope,
I jump through your hoops,
The next already looming
We’re caught in a loop.

A castle paved by deceit,
Calls forth with illusions
Steps echo as I rush to meet,
Your expectations just out of reach

Kingdom ruled mercilessly
Hope shines through
Its light cursing me
Blinded by longing

You beckon forth
But your image retreats
Chasing your silhouette
We’re caught in a loop

Eyes fixed on your throne
A prisoner to hope
Standing trapped and alone
Caught in a loop
