Unreachable Pain
Promises made when time was running away
Happiness fades with memories being made
The old man smiles starting to look away
Death took his entrance right away
With open arms he breaks thousands of hearts alive by taking one away
With simple tasks he leaves the way for emptiness to stay
With every small beat pain took its way right into the hole of a heart that will have its time one day
Time passed and Hope was the only reason to stay
Pictures attached hoping memories never fade
The old man waves leaving his images to play
The lessons he gave them away when he knew he was never going to stay
Forever is just a word made
For imagination to give Hope a way
To make people stay one more day
Life was not easy to play
But He promised that happiness was worth the wait
