I’m standing at the edge of time,
Watching my own demise,
Twisted lovers and broken hearts,
Sorrowful tunes just echoes,
Deranged thoughts and sweet whispers,
Dreams of worlds anew,
Wishes of grandeur,
Troubles of failure,
My life laid bare before me,
The mistakes I made,
The happiness I achieved,
The darkness that plagued me,
And the light that I wished for,
Everything I’ve thought,
Everything I’ve done,
Every lie I told,
Wish I made,
Dream I had,
Thought I shunned,
Everything I wished to hide,
Staring at me
Through the mists of time,
The changes I didn’t make,
The ambitions I left undone,
The fixes I failed to try,
I see how it’s all connected,
How one mistake
Leads to the next
And how I caused it,
Where I could have fixed it,
What I should have done,
Instead of what I did do,
I can see,
For the first time -
I can understand,
I know what I did wrong,
But now it’s too late,
Nothing I do can change
The past and what I did,
I cannot go back,
All that there is left,
Is dreams of yesterday,
And wishes for tomorrow.
