never or forever

i dry my eyes
yes it's all ok
but i really know
it never will be

hope is hope
or it's just pretend
what am i doing
when will it end

hold on a little more
but does it matter
part of me says yes
the other disagrees

as tears come back
i know nothing new
a little more time
still hoping it's true

the cycle keeps going
back and forth
i cannot control it
maybe no one can

where's my answer
will it ever come
rejected in my dream
i never had a chance
