A Broken Tomorrow
A Broken Tomorrow:
As I slowly lay my head to rest,
The moonlight glow falls softly on my face.
Staring into days gone by,
Your silver gray shadow silenced my cry..
-----o0o-----
Painful moments from the past,
Turn my memories into tears.
Uncaring eyes cold as ice,
Shoot shivers through my soul.
-----o0o-----
Flickering hope of nothing to gain,
From people playing a game.
Believing yesterday's promises,
Surely adds to tomorrow`s pain
-----o0o-----
Painful memories of days gone by
Trigger my soul and make me cry.
Tears of sorrow fill my thoughts,
Yesterday pain will offer no support.
-----o0o-----
Silently write me a wordless song,
Sung by the rhythm of your heart.
Capture my soul and open my mind,
Let my tears sing that song in time.
-----o0o-----
Broken promises from yesterday's dreams
Offer no relief to tomorrow's beliefs.
Closing my eyes to the moonlight`s glow,
Forcing away the pain for the day.
-----o0o-----
