Time went by, and my life still remains,
Silently my soul unveils the shadows
Of the burning feelings within my veins.
š
A cat sits on an empty soul's lap.
The darkness prevails unraveled,
A river of tears calls for a nap,
The strength is graveled.
š
The boat roams and I cannot swim,
Deep waters keep me drowning within!
š
The dark is near, light seems far.
My deep fake smile it's almost a scar
Of those torturous moments of pain in the brain.
The wheel of time keeps going, and I stay the same.
š
Life is not something good to go,
A warrior loses battles but never the war.
Yesterday's feelings were not long ago.
š
Forget-me-not, dear light.
Embrace my darkness whenever it might
Overcome the smile always on my face.
š
My smile is the stone left to turn.
I cannot be fine, but that smile is never gone.
š
Darkness comes and goes,
Sorrow keeps my stones.
š
I will keep the light, I might
Lose the sight for a moment despite
All the battles that kept me victorious.
Life is great at being inglorious!
š
Today let me be, tomorrow I'll fight.
Another journey through victory will bring the light!
