Fan Fiction ❯ Shadow of Yesterday in Your Eyes ❯ The Dream ( Chapter 1 )

I saw a ghost of yesterday in your eyes...

Let's drift away into those eyes and never face tomorrow.

I'm not ashamed to admit my fear the way

So many wandering children do, defending themselves with lies.

I've fought in your soul; in the end it won...I'm banished.

That's okay, as long as you're still beside me.

Although that's a pleasure distance denies me,

I still feel you here, making my heart less famished.

Time and space are the eternal enemy, cutting into us.

There's still a lot I want to say to you...

Would you hear me if I kneeled to pray?

Would I be able to feel your hands on mine, hear you whisper "hush?"

I'm sorry, if I didn't tell you how much you mean.

A single memory can sweep me away

Into a land of regret, where I still see you walk away.

I never thought it was the last time your steps would be seen.

Doubt is worthless, a deprecation of your perfection.

Wounds are superficial, shredding every promise to you.

Every heartfelt word that was supposed to bind us forever

Seems lost to its cause, having failed the final inspection.

Why aren't you here for me to hold?

Of everyone, why should I be deprived of your laugh?

That expanding place beside me is empty forever,

After everything is finished, I'm still alone and cold.

A sadist laughed at me, and you weren't there to retaliate...

Why not love me from above, follow me on angel-wings?

In the end, when the good-byes are said to an unmoving shell,

The truth should be clear to me, now if ever-

Your eternally closed eyes can never save me from the hate.
