[October 12, 2016]

Standing a blank slate before you, an infinite wait
This sorrow deepens within me, here I forever stay
Streaming down my broken face, tears fill my eyes
Rendered in two, my heart still follows your lies
 
Forgetting who I am, I continue to chase after you
I ignore my dreams, I will die a forgotten fool
My past haunts behind me, reminding me of my place
But still I press forward, I've forgotten my fate
 
The years pass by, you disappear from my life
I watched you fade away, as hollow as the night
Depressing thoughts, echo through my entire being
I try to move on, but I still chase an empty dream
 
I've reached my goals, but I failed my happiness
I chose my life over yours, ending in loneliness
And in my sleep I continue to endlessly weep
As I continue chasing you, inside my broken dreams
