Between Future And Past

Into the void it all flows
Last painted day of most graceful lines

The lost image of you now goes
Behind the tears shines another smile

And I silently wish
It was all shades of dream
Dwelling and fading
Within an ever-withered bliss
A memory draping
The mind with veils of unseen tears

Above the stars we are floating
As the whole world sleeps beyond
And nothing matters anymore

I will confess if you tell the truth
Behind the smile are all the tears untamed
One only path through times that never fade
As it all vanishes into the silence of day
I am nothing without you

A promise
An oath
Lost stars beneath the midnight’s cloak
Silver innocence
Craving the memory
I lose control
Within it burns

I shall fade before it’s real
But I cannot resist
You are my only thrill

I shall stay until it’s gone
Because it’s still not time
You are my only hope

Ever home, forever the one
Purity of soul and mind, the only dream beyond
Never-fading path
Under the guiding star
Somewhere between the future of dreams
And memories of the past
You shelter me from all the harm

I shall fade but I will stay
As it’s all real
You are my world by a warm hearth
A memory and the feel
Lying beyond all kingdoms and fantasy realms

My only heart to fall and rise
A home beneath pale sunrise
I see the same dream deep in your eyes
