Starting From the End
Remembering the day I lost my dream,
The thought of it each day made me scream,
All that I did just for your sake,
I still wonder was it love or was the feeling fake?
Tears was all I found in my eyes,
Every word you said seemed like massive lies,
I was breaking at different times throughout the day,
Your memories were the reason for me to stay.
My life, then seemed so very complicated,
Without a ray of hope I felt rejected,
I agree Lord, all those sorrows was not in my share,
As you had warned me to hold on, but I failed to care.
“Disclosing about myself” was a mistake done by me,
Without telling a word about himself, he flee,
“Waiting”… I guessed was the right decision then,
But I didn’t hear a word from him since when.
Then came the day when I had to say,
“Enough of these tears, this is not your way,
The one made for you wont ever give you pain,
You have to let go or else you will go insane.”
“Letting go” …was the only way out,
Lord finally you saved me from destiny’s plot,
Today when I look in the mirror and begin to gaze,
I no longer see a broken heart beneath a laughing face.
