Amplified

What does it all mean?

It seems the days are growing cloudy
In proportion with the pain
The skies are dark just like the heart of
a woman with nothing to gain
Is it hard to understand me?
I'm in a place you know too well
Have you forgotten what life can be?
Just imagine-

All your failings- amplified
All your faults- magnified
All your fears- realized
When you find
All your dreams were dramatized
Your heart feels so traumatized
And the scene was improvised
In your mind

What is and what could be
Confuse themselves with the past
Hypothetical destiny
Mixes with what did not last
In the oceans of forever
My mind turns a thousand times
But the better part of never
Seems insistent on

All my faults amplified
All I've lost magnified
All because I realized
That the cost would be too high
For my life to be revised
For my words to be stylized
For you to be so surprised
At my fate

It seems my mind is growing cloudy
In proportion with the pain
And my heart is growing colder
Than the frigid winter rain
And the echoes bounce around me
In a thousand different tongues
As you fail to hide the fact that
You understand every one

All my failings (amplified)
All my faults (magnified)
All my fears (realized)
My control
All my dreams (left to die)
All my screams (amplified)
All that seems (amplified)
In my soul

Author's Note

Have at it! But please be open- minded (don't try to get caught up in what it really means- I will post that later upon request).

I am feeling this!
I thought at first (it's long), but after reading the first
I could see myself (and others) in the images created.
Excellent write!
This was my favorite!
All my faults amplified
All I've lost magnified
All because I realized
That the cost would be too high
For my life to be revised
For my words to be stylized
For you to be so surprised
At my fate

Nice description of how all is amplified in your soul
