Maybe it's my fault

Maybe I pushed you to take that leap of faith that it was all easy that You could do the inexorable
Maybe I could somehow change the undeniable
Maybe bounds of mortality did not affect You
Maybe pain and suffering revealed something that no one else can learn but You

Maybe freedom was not a God given gift, but had to be earned
Maybe knowledge was the curse that humanity had learned
Maybe love gave You life
Maybe love gave You strife

Maybe heroes were born to embody the benevolence and honesty in this world
Maybe villains were born to embody the abnormality of our human nature in this world
Maybe things fall apart so better things fall together
Maybe You're making excuses why You are no longer together

Maybe You all should just give up now
Maybe You shouldn't and focus on the here and now
Maybe there isn't a God watching over us
Maybe there is a God advocating for us

Maybe it was admirable of Me to make You believe in something intangible
Maybe it was foolish of Me to make You believe in a gamble
Maybe I built You to a frontier that You have never reached before
Maybe I got you there just to fall through the floor

Maybe You are all doomed to live in this life of mediocrity
Maybe You are all just feeling like a disposable commodity  
Maybe the ferocious inferno that once raged within You has depleted
Maybe it is no longer vaulting as You were cheated

Maybe You will never love again
Maybe You will never fight again
Maybe You will never believe again

Or maybe

just maybe... I'm the best fucking chance you got


Yours truly for the weak and the weary

Hope
Something that I wrote to humanity if I were Hope in this world explaining why Hope should be used as it is our greatest strength and our greatest weakness
