I couldn't stop myself
from what I just did
I knew it was wrong
and still I did it
I couldn't catch myself
when I was going to fast
even for me it was too quick
and still.. at long last
I could see what I was doing
the damage I was creating
with whatever it was that I did
it felt like I was slaying
all the dreams everyone once had
once cherished, once loved
once held, once forgotten
once died, and never to return
and as I looked in the darkness
that once was my life
I looked at the time remaining
And the love that was once mine
It just suddenly came to me
Like a thunder without the lightning
Like a beng without the sound
Life isn’t always what you wish it to be
And with that thought,Another one came
And that one was really ashaming
Why didn’t I see it before?
How come I missed such a crucial lesson
When all I ever wanted
Ever dreamed of, ever cherished
Was the thought of seeing the greater picture
Of the life I once had
