I have a clean slate
looking for solid ground
Haunted by shortcomings
Lost in the crowd.

Broken dreams
never fulfilled
Closed promises
That time will reveal.

I close my eyes
and I see such pain
Hating the life
My dreams are to blame.

Now I am alone
with all options clear
Wailing from bondage
from yesterday's fear.

Who have I
become today
The man who loved
but not asked to stay.

I fear so much
That I might move on
or that she might find
some where else she belongs.

Hope is not
a part of me
Nor is faith
in destiny.

So I lay in fear
and sadness flows.
Both our fault...
The decision she chose.
