Untitled
By smilinmike Goodliffe
21st CenturyFrom across what's been
And been between
Shadows past
On the wall still seen
Dance across the ceiling
Whether I awake
Or am I still dreaming
Here I lay me down to sleep
Where darkness plays and demons creep
For nothing
Three years of tears and silent escapes
My life for you
For you to take
For nothing
Now as these last few moments float
By and bye
The fear strikes out
These moments dry
Too dry to cry
Where I am left
To try
For you
For nothing
All past regret
I made the bet
So set in ways
The past of days
Where love life plays
And plays and plays
For greatness and rainbows
To reach where the sky goes
Teach what god knows
Nothing
For you
For nothing
Memories in rows like crosses
Learning lots of what loss is
Between cracks where the moss is
Suns light shivers on the horizon
A small box
I keep all my cries in
I wear all my lies thin
Masks for disguising
My eyes in
They are black
For you
For nothing
