something ending

To stumble and often fall,

as you make your way along an empty road

but despite the hopeless passion of your blank

& vacant world, you’ll keep going, won’t you?

have you often dreamt of running away?

alone & staring at the walls wondering what went wrong, you’re living a life that wasn’t enough,

now realizing how quickly you were forgotten.

you must be very brave, to keep going,

when you can’t even see a destination.

you must be very brave, to remember,

when everyone else, so easily, forgot.

sometimes, when the lights are dimmed

and you can only lie there trying to dream,

you hear a low cry of someone breaking,

the sound of something ending.

even the most beautiful things feel pain,

stained with hidden memories.

even the most innocent human beings are crushed,

by a world that no longer cares.

do you want me to come back for you?

if you’ve lost your way again in those shadows,

I will bring a light of a million stars of hope,

so we can find a destination at the end of pain.

do you want me to come back for you?

if you’ve been forgotten and left behind,

I will paint a portrait of your soul

so that you will never again be lost.
