Is It Over ©©

I’m a dreamer

I’m a thinker

I have been a father

A lover

I have been the villain

A hero to some

Close your eyes and think of what I’ve said

Ask yourself

Who am I

Who are we

Who am I deep inside where it hurts when I lie

Who am I when I look away from the mirror

What was yesterday is lost to time

Slowly fading from my mind

The darkness creeps over what is left

Only the heart stubbornly holds onto a sliver of hope for words that were once given

Something that isn’t really there anymore

It’s just what you want and can’t have

I look into the night sky and watch my dreams drift away

Up into the darkness among the shining stars

For someone else with the fire to hope for what they desire

Is it over for me 

No, I don’t think so

I’m not who I once was or ever will be

The silence I find in the still of the night

Is the music that soothes a burning mind

The embrace of the darkness caressing my soul

While I become who I must be, the new me

When the night is over do the stars still shine

As I drift away into tomorrow
