A Dream Within a Lie

Take this life, a dream within a lie, Uncertain images, surrounding light, For what I've seen, for what I've known, There is no "hope" for as you go. Take my crime, a pain within your shrine, Unspoken dreams, unbearable memories, Fading away with time, dust in the sea of lies. Take this love, if possible let it grow. Let it breathe, let it die, Turn back as you walk away, Through that door of eminent lost. © December 26, 2014
