Literature Text
Break these dreams again
And watch them fade,
As I've wasted away another day.
These eyes can't shine
With inspiration
If there's no mirrors to tell
When we're glowing,
And others to see that aura.
Absorbed and purposely preoccupied
With everything but anything useful,
A rare opportunity outstretched today,
Watch it as it goes away.
Come and go with passing dreams
As numerous and dangerous
As a crowded highway,
Rushing, reaching forward,
Waiting to reach a destination.
Reach for the stars
But barely touch the sky,
Simply wait until you're tall enough,
Then realize you can't keep grip firm.
My heart can wait
And always does too long,
But time still keeps passing by.
I'm waiting only to remember
That's it's only too late
Because I hesitated.
And watch them fade,
As I've wasted away another day.
These eyes can't shine
With inspiration
If there's no mirrors to tell
When we're glowing,
And others to see that aura.
Absorbed and purposely preoccupied
With everything but anything useful,
A rare opportunity outstretched today,
Watch it as it goes away.
Come and go with passing dreams
As numerous and dangerous
As a crowded highway,
Rushing, reaching forward,
Waiting to reach a destination.
Reach for the stars
But barely touch the sky,
Simply wait until you're tall enough,
Then realize you can't keep grip firm.
My heart can wait
And always does too long,
But time still keeps passing by.
I'm waiting only to remember
That's it's only too late
Because I hesitated.
