I sing, I laugh, I speak, I cook, I sleep, I work, I look out of the window, Hoping for a break in the clouds;
Watching the world implode within itself, deep down, I weep for a loss, as I try to keep it all together, I hope and I pray;
lost in a sea of words, echo through the skies, the nightmare of the reality taunt me as I stare down an empty barrel;
A voice inside my head tells me, of a world turned upside down, a world where everyone & everything is forgiven, a world full of misplaced trust and faith;
Life is a mirage of hopes and dreams, shattered in an instant, I am swimming in a sea of emotions and thoughts, trying to keep my head above water as life tries to drown me;
I've got nowhere to go and nowhere to run, I stand there and take a deep breath, I've come to realize, with every ending comes a new beginning;
As one door closes and another one opens, it's time to clean out the ghosts of the past, to welcome a new beginning and a new me, in a new future filled with new possibilities;
As the night falls, the trees sway to the wind, signalling the winds of change, and the hope of better days to come;
