the world i see

a world of darkness covers me
questions burning mysteries
i'm so confused i cannot think
no longer know what to believe in
what is it that gives us meaning
life seems long until its gone
when our journey meets its end
will we feel we meant something
my mind is swirling constantly
decending in a depressing void
i cannot see the future of me
as time flows by i'm lost at sea
these things in me they grow and grow
building up upon themselves
until the base no longer holds
and all i know comes crashing down
the piles and ruins long forgotten
those who venture near see nothing
the sands of time have overcome them
and in the end i am nothing
long forgotten dreams of old
lost in a world unknown to all
my own little world that i would live in
created to escape from me
a world where things are as i see
and i can feel alive and free
but soon the dream is reality
lost in a haze of unseen thoughts
the link has vanished before my eyes
i cannot see blinded to be free
lost in the darkness of confusion
no longer seeing reality
am i to be forever lost
lost in a world that only i see
