Was I Too Hopeful

By Li_A

Was I too hopeful?

It wasn’t expectation, just… hope.

That quiet kind—the one that feels like redemption.

Like maybe, somehow,

this was meant just for me.

So I poured my all—

every single bit of me,

even the broken pieces.

I poured without holding back.

Maybe it’s my imagination,

maybe it’s just me overthinking again.

But I don’t want it to end.

I’m not selfish—

I just know what I want.

And I’m not afraid to say it.

So yeah,

my heart feels a bit heavy tonight.

But then again…

it was worth it, right?

The smile, the peace,

the everything.

It’s all good.

Even if it doesn’t last—

it was real,

and it was mine.
