Forgotten To Sing

The days are filled with silence I spend sunlight on finding answers Waiting hours on end for night to fall Hoping another day will carry chances I used to sing my heart out When I was left alone at home Now I fear that someone might hear me That someone is me, oh no How did I go From melody to nothing Years of dreaming To losing everything How will I rise From nothing to something Years of learning Have I forgotten to sing? The nights are filled with demons I spend moonlight on finding angels Waiting hours on end for the morning Hoping I'd wake up to a sequel I've only lived half of what I can I've only dreamed half of what I am I've only sang half of what I understand I only, only, only... just began... How did I go From melody to nothing Years of dreaming To losing everything How will I rise From nothing to something Years of learning Have I forgotten to sing?

Notes

I've been undergoing some low times lately. It may just be a simple case of writer's block or something similar, but after a turning point in my life, this poem defines how I've been struggling to find myself again. Maybe I'll never find my old self, but I hope to find my new self soon.
