Cloudy Dream
A cloudy day that feels so sleepy,
A dream of beauty and unending love
The sun is gone, the sky is weeping,
Cleaning memories from high above.
Ocean wind, which carries sadness
Of fateful chances never taken
And blows me back to bitter madness
Reminding of the hope forsaken.
One graceful wish, one deep desire
Still keeps me straying every day.
The freezing cold now burns like fire
Of all that's felt and pushed away.
Some sorrow stalks beneath the sea
Surging, growling and disrupting
Telling me what's not supposed to be,
Destroying painfully, corrupting.
Regret is deep, a storm now rumbles,
I try to hide, but it's too late.
The wind is strong, the heart it crumbles,
I must accept the bitter fate.
But there, sparkling in the distance,
A star shines bright like in my dreams.
And no one speaks of its existence,
As only I know what it means.
It shows the path, it keeps me moving
The hopes are back, it makes me blind.
Until I see what has been proven -
The star was only... in my mind.
