I one time dreamed a dream wherein I walked within an open field,

where every step a memory was, and every breath was poignant filled.

I saw each day I ever lived, they all bled slowly into one.

Each opportunity to give now stood a moment left undone.

I saw each thing I ever owned and tried so hard to justify,

but every effort woeful fell and I was left to wonder why.

When you’re on an endless highway

is there any hope at all

that a destination will be reached,

and you can finally fall

back in the arms of the one you lost,

in the home you left behind?

For despite the years spent traveling,

more highway’s all I find.

They say that life’s a journey,

comprised within a dream.

A quest designed to test the will

and faith...

I used to have a reason

to get up and fight for truth.

I used to have light in my eyes

to know I’d be with you.

I used to have a lot of things

but now all that I do -

is sit here alone, remembering home,

wishing I’d been true.

I used to have a family.

I used to have a home.

I used to have friends,

things I could call wins.

A foundation made of st...

The deepest hole I’ve placed it in

and covered it with all that’s been.

Then beat upon that grave each day

in hope to make it go away.

I’m terrified that it will grow,

and so afraid somehow, you’ll know -

the secret I have buried deep.

The secret that I want to keep.

The thing that is the root of all

the reasons why I want to fall.

The reason why I’ve never ...

I’ve never liked the winds of change

they bring the cold and driving rain,

destroying what was calm and warm

and leaving nothing but the storm.

They make me have to rise and flee

to higher ground for my safety.

Then when they’re done I’m left again

to find new space I can fit in.

And oh the work, it brings me down

exhausted, humbled to the ground.

Yet in the...

We want the same and fear the change,

yet all the while we just complain

of everything single thing under the sun.

I’ve heard it is a general rule,

that man is nothing but a fool

because he never wants the prize he’s won.

And yeah, it is the same with me,

I live in discontent you see.

I never seem to find a place to rest.

I’ve searched to find some middle ground

I woke one day as I recall,

years back in time but not in mind.

The reason I know not at all,

but felt I there and humbled knew,

for peace distilled as morning dew -

life is a gift indeed.

Then from that morn

the years have passed,

whilst way to way filled up the day

and brought me where I stand at last -

worn thin of wear and weak of will.

Yet in my mind the...
