Snuffed Hope Explanation
This is the story behind the poem. I liked this girl called Amanda. We had been going out for about a month when bad things started to happpen to me. I was really depressed at the time and things didn't seem they could get much worse. Then, Amanda dumped me for reasons I don't fully understand even now a month after. So I was all depressed and the like. So to revieve my depression I tried a new stress reliver, writing poems. "Snuffed Hope"  was my first and I wrote it the same day.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hope.....
Mine has gone out
I can no longer see the light
in the everlasting darkness
it seems to have gone out
life with out hope
darkness
This bacially says that I have lost all hope in my life. It was true while I was writing this.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
its warmth has left me
I feel cold
I cannot feel its warmth
Life with out hope
numbness
Me just using the metaphore that feeling hope is like feeling warmpth
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Darkness over takes me
Coldness sweeps me
into the gap
into the void
life without hope
death.......
Here I'm using the darkness medaphore that I use in most of my poems. The darkness repersents despair and lonelyness two things I fear the most.
