I watched silently,
as the dying embers of
my dreams fade away.My lips tremble so,
my heart heavy as a rock.
I tried hard to graspwhat remained, but no,
the "choice" is not for me
I had to losenthe strap, let it go
be free, flee away from me
and so I watched, asthe debris came down,
falling like rain from my eyes
and I wonder howthey reflected such
bright and glimmering lights from
those, my dreams' embersin the sky, your eyes
brought the shadows of my dreams
dancing wild, but dead,they are dead inside.
no more of those illusions
don't speak about themI'll cover my eyes
and be burned, in this fragment
of my world, unknownundiscovered,
isolated, away from you,
alone i will bebut i never felt
so unbelievably free,
fulfilled, verily.🍃~sweetmiracle97~🥀
