Like Tides

Every moment of dream I caressed dearly
Through days and years
All the hopes and wishes now turned into memory
A silent farewell

Moments of dreams are gone with the tide
As I don’t see the light
Living in this eternal nightmare
How could I love, how could I dare?

I know I have to let it go
You’ll never know
If I’m still alive or not
You won’t ever know

My precious memories of last few years
Dwell deep in your eyes
I still feel alive through all these fears
Because of one dear smile

But a dream is just a dream sometimes
This hope shines like a tiny spark
A silent wish I whisper night by night
But will you ever know my heart?

I love so deeply, like in a dream
Burning still so mad within
Though pale dawn comes
Leaving me only cinders of hopes

Will you know if I am gone
Will you care for a fleeting moment
I’ll never know
For better or worse I never wished this love to end
