Shades of the self

Thoughts begun at the end of the day
Secrets and fears flying over my head
All the promises and the lies you’ve said
Come to my mind… everyday!

I have closed the book since May
With fragments of a soul I’ve never had
Tears of mine were so lost and sad
In a Paradise… that just fades away!

I keep all the dreams of this past time
Hoping soon they would be mine
And free myself … wherever!

My soul hides my inner pain
But… would you ask me, once again
“who wants to live forever”?!
