Life’s colours
Am I just this man… a broken man
now no more than an empty shell?
Have I lived my dreams… lived out each scream
each day it’s getting harder to tell?
The talons of light still claw at my mind
the shadows are all that I know
I can see the sun shining… lovers out dining
but the emptiness I’m feeling still grows.
There is nowhere to hide from all that I feel
there is nowhere to hide from the day
the night time just surrounds me in darkness
and hides all of life’s colours away.
My mind just a whirlpool of all that has been
I have found no solace in time…
all I have lost with nothing worth gained
if there was guilt then that guilt was mine.
I carry on each day hoping that life will bring change
something positive that I can hold in my heart
I am truly so tired of fighting to be understood
tired of this life and my part.
