Where does this end
When does it die?
Why are hearts broken
Which makes our soul cry?
Dreams are manuafactured
To be taken away
There is the death of romance
Without a word to say.
We believe in things
Which imagination inspires
A cruel reality sets in
And extinguishes the fire.
We grasp at a chance
For a "happily ever after"
Only to be subdued
By the real world's laughter.
Holding belief in rainbows
And a gentle sky above
Waiting once again
To experience this thing called love.
Call the cycle vicious
Or maybe even sinister
We follow this religion
Which has no minister.
So it never ends
And it's true it never dies
Our hearts continue to break
And we forever cry.
The dreams keep coming
To us every day
Only to be diminished
And mysteriously blown away.
Just like the rose
The thorns on its side
Yet so violated and exposed
Its feelings it cannot hide.
So we hang on loosely
Praying we don't fall
For if the heart strings break
Surly we'll lose it all.
In the end do we know
What is truth or lie?
It's so mysterious
Even death may die.

Okay, maybe the last line was from HP Lovecraft, but the rest is mine!    Hope everyond is doing well!


"Those little slices of death, how I loathe them."

Never give your heart away, it will always come back broken.
