Too Old To Dream
7 May, 2014
Author: Tarna
Maybe I don't need anything at all
A reality check that I am no one
Easily replaced by a society
That cares only for itself
Maybe I am too old to dream
What the future holds is for the young
Maybe my time on earth is near done
And I am left cynical and soured
Maybe life has been too hard
My heart broken once to often
My dreams left slashed into oblivion
Maybe I have reached my final straw
Maybe I am just tired of trying to no avail
Tired of the pains no one else sees
Tired of carrying others that won't carry me
Tired of the silence that overwhelms
Maybe its being taken for granted
Maybe its being left feeling used
Maybe I am left too scared to dream
Or maybe it's just my darkness that screams
