Betrayed by innocence
|
Deceived by delusions
|
Plagiarized promises
|
Pale into empty hopes.
|
|
Ivory towers bow down
|
In reverence to daylight
|
As dreamers awaken
|
In sleepers somber shade.
|
|
Ocean Waves shift leaving
|
Only memories.
|
Final traces of hope
|
Are swallowed in the deep.
|
|
Despair sends a certain calm
|
A vague sense of relief
|
Released from all our longings
|
Silently we'll sleep.
|
|
Hope leads to quiet desperation
|
When reality obscures the dream
|
Makes the mind a grave of memories
|
That wander like the lonely breeze
|
Whose whispers echo through ruins rust
|
Of towers torn and dreams turned to dust.
