Your Story
Your story
When it’s dark outside and you’re lying in your bed
Your eyes are open but you’re somewhere else inside your head
The mind is spinning and you unravel the story that you read
The truth of all the things you’ve done and have ever said
Like a film of everything you’ve seen and been to and now its lead
To some memories you keep and turmoil’s leaving scars that only you know that bled
The special moments captured like a bright light that you fumble around to tread
The awkward silences and misfortunes that somehow turn into your final dread
The things you shouldn’t have done but you did them consequentially instead
And then you fall asleep in the darkness of the night and dream another dream that may lie ahead
