Let the Dream Fade

Let the Dream Fade

A Poem by mhylands

This solitary confinement
Feeding my dementia, isolating my judgement
Into disillusioned contentedness
I am alone
I am afraid

Always tempted by the faint glimmer of hope
Always seduced by every false promises made

These masochistic tendencies
Torment me beyond my expectations
Haunting my dreams
Leading me to the same cliff everytime

I cannot see below
All has gone cold
Wallowing in sorrow
I've lost my hold

No longer can I control
These wrenching feelings
I will not be consoled
By this forced healing

I pray there is a sea to drown
This anxiety grips me ever so tight
Choking with every single sound
Just stay forever out of my sight

I've given up
All my rights
I am fed up
Since that night...

Please let it fade
Just let it fade
I'm done with this charade

I can relate to these lines very well.
I like your composition. Its deep and heart-felt.
