Hopelessly dreaming
of a love long since lost.
Faithfully pleading
for life beyond cost.
Broken and bleeding
from the pains of tomorrow
Seemingly unaware of
today’s triumphs and sorrows.
A shattered looking glass
reflects with dusty shards
the torn memories imprinted
the cutting of cords.
A life no longer living
a death no longer died
A passion unforgiving
a new taste never tried.
Hope that springs eternal
doesn’t seem to enter here
Perhaps all life’s new places
are lost because of fear.
Hidden in the balance
is a world without excuse
Pointless trying to forget
Only tightens up the noose.
Realization of a life now passing
can’t turn back the wasted years
Forgetting deeds of shame
won’t always hide your hidden tears.
Sighing won’t change the past
Dreaming can’t rewrite the page
Trusting changes future’s outlook
Commitment clears life’s dead stage.
Then the broken heart will heal
Sorrows become eternal bliss
Then the life that died will rise
Never missing grace’s eclipse.
Great work, Princess Eilonwy! :)
