Chasing a Dream

Running out of time as the clock keeps ticking away You hope you can change his mind and make him stay It's only been a long fight keeping it together til now Knowing all you've been through you ask yourself how Blinded by false hope praying the past was the past The wounds never heal while scars and memories last Instead of facing his demons he runs thd other way There's no way to stop time soon it will be another day You are losing him and soon he will be out of sight Determination is in your blood morning,noon,and night He is on your mind all day long and in your dreams Trying to break this cycle is much harder than it seems It is so hard to just give up,allowing him to slip away While the pain and determination get stronger everyday

Hi, The eternal 'Why' why should someone we love does not reciprocate. The more we try to hold on the more they want to move on. Then it is time for realism to enter the equation. Do not allow yourself to be hurt any longer. Recognise that in life we need to experience various things to mould our characters. Maybe the other person had fulfilled the necessary quota with you and you both need to move on to experience new ones during your lifetime. All the best to you. Regards, Theresa x
