Last Breath Of A Dream

They won't burden me anymore...

-x-

I feel I’m breaking…
Now the sun is setting, waking up my dreams
I can’t help feeling
I am being torn…slowly…at my seams

And I start to wonder…
How your face would look, if you could see me now
And so I’m thinking
What you’d say, if now you knew there’s no way out

I can’t stop crying…
Now my dreams are waking, stirring in my mind
Those dreams are dying
And I know that now they must be left behind

But once again…
I relive them and the thoughts of what could've been
Even though I know
I’m just harrowing myself with wishes left unseen

My eyes on you…
And I see you looking, straight inside my soul
It’s hard to take…
When I know that I will never be made whole

These tears keep falling…
As I try to push those sad dreams back inside
And now they’re here
I’m exposed and there is nowhere I can hide

I've got to stop…
This destructive circle from spiralling down on me
But no one sees
These tears are frozen; this is who I've learned to be

My hands are shaking…
As with each breath, I blow away my painful dreams
Those dreams are lost
In my eyes that are now plagued with crimson streams

Dust on my pillow…
Is but fragments of the wishes, torn apart
Streaming emotions
Falling from inside my bruised and battered heart

I rest my head…
Hoping when dawn comes, I’ll finally be at ease
Now that I know
Tomorrow fate will come and take me; I’ll be free
