Rain drops reach,
For the ground
Suspended between the air,
And unknown hesitance.
Tears fall much the same way.
Breathe is pulled from within
As hate is felt from places same.
Sun taps shoulder of the night,
None too politely,
Intruding upon the shadows' acvitities.
Much like these things.
Every vital piece of our being,
Battles to be known daily.
Yet we revel unawares,
In useless and hopeless optimism,
Hiding;
Where life remains as a lie.
And true dreams,
Never see light.

Very nice imagery here, Oblivion.
"in useless and hopleless optimism" is classic. I hope to see more from you here.
