Clear As Day

A Fire burns within us all We all wish to live our dream We all fall in love at least once We all carry on as if nothing is wrong We run our own courtroom of judges and juries At some point in all the mess we get lost Without knowing we fall victim to the enemy of fear It seems catastrophic for a time but the tragedy seems to be forgotten Like our connections to the past Our dreams are let go Our insecurity runs free We talk of what ifs and gossip of younger days How we believed we could accomplish anything in this world Where has all that gone People we've met Places we've been We wave goodbye like we don't need you anymore But the truth is we do We are afraid to cry We avoid taking blame We cast these things aside Like smelly trash Do we realize what we do to those people and places We lock them away in the forgotten realms of our distrust But they set back and brew The smoke so heavy Conceals what we really feel What we really need Takes the place of what we call a beating heart Depression if you recall is what ultimately knocks us down Out of the game Time to step up and stare this game down Let the fire breath and you shall see beyond all the charred black dream Is a true vision Clear As Day..........
