Bad Investment

Hopes, aspirations, and dreams were sold
Broken promises was what was told
Heavily invested with the heart as currency
All the eggs were in one basket; lost all of it both emotionally and physically
Fatal missteps hinging on the brain
Scorched from being burnt while praying for rain
Tapped out with no inkling of hope
Going through the motions; how can one cope?
A seller’s market searching for the right prospect
Stagnated at the moment; time to change the subject
