Devoid Saturday, January 29, 2005: I thought I had found life's meaning When I gazed upon a beautiful scene Painted by the sun's penetrating rays Illuminating rivers and streams Deserts, oceans, and autumn's leaves Allowing beauty to be seen But through my fingers it slipped Now their purpose elludes me As if it were merely a broken dream For the sun casts shadows you see Into whose darkness no one will ever see Now all that reamins are a few passing moments And no more reason to be And as time rolls on into eternity It only casts darker sadows upon my dreams Into whose depths I can never reach As my dreams grow darker they start to frighten me And life's meaning only saddens me There is no reason to be Life is no more than a broken dream Chris // 1/29/2005 ______________________ Comments: Post a Comment
