Mary Elizabeth McGlynn - Acceptance

Time flows, nobody knows
The years go by
Where we go, alone
From here

Night falls, strange coverings
My eyes, the sea
What is wrong
With me

Deep in my mind you think everything's right
Tell the true yourself
See it's just a nightmare
Something is telling you
Nothing can change where you are, again

Why should it matter your dreams of a child?
Innocence is gone
Only fear to play with...
Paces are changing
But nothing is changing the pain
Too late...

Two steps, one take, getting closer...
And closer...
And one more breath I take
Sounds me forever...

Over and over it calls to your soul
Say it isn't sold
Emptiness surrounds you
No one can have
If the angels refused to come here
Who's there?

Cold fading photos they lay by your said
Something in my bow, never mind the reason
Visions are lying, and reasons too sleep to survive
This time

The cold, the cold,
My light, my light
The fear, the fear
Returning
It's not, it's not,
Mirage, mirage
Your fear, your fear
It's changing

today, as i walked home through a desert of sounds in the empty street, the wind caressed my face, and i smiled, and i wept, and i smiled... confused, with contact lenses panicking in my eyes fearing tears to come, i take a deep breath of that magic air that comes to people when they really need to take a deep breath... and there goes another one.... i look at the gutter between my two tired checkerboard shoes as if it had all my answers... i find none.... and i stand up and proceed to continue wandering through existence, continuing to care about all the wrong things, continuing to ignore the right ones... apparently life is what happens when you just, don't, care... though i am but a simple woman, i miss simple things, a message, a voice, an idea, a touch... and i react simply... it is not due to you wind that i wept on the side of the road, outside the door of my empty home.. it is due to the memories you brought... the memories i have... the your  memories  .....my lover...i love u forever..my passion secret....
