How once everything that I was scared to even dream about,
Is in front of me today;
All the light that I was dancing in,
I knew would make me blind someday!

I kept running and running in different directions,
Didn’t even give it a thought,
Until I stumbled upon the pieces of my broken dreams,
That I totally forgot.

Funny how with each passing day,
I’m shedding the pain and the hurt
Off my chest;
That I thought would be stuck to my
soul for life,
Of whatever it is now left!

It took me a while to recognize,
That things have finally changed;
My heart that bled long enough,
The scars on it now hardly ache.

I still live in my own little world,
I still get lost when I see the sky;
I still remember every single thing,
It’s just that now I don’t cry!

But on one rainy day when the evening
was darker than usual,
And the fragrance of fading memories the cold winds brought;
On that day it felt heavy, to know that,
you are still somewhere in my heart,
But now nowhere in my thoughts!
