Tell Me

When you first laid eyes on him, did you hold back your true thoughts?

Maybe a mere shadow or distance kept you from getting to the ocean

Of expanding into new territory that would give you a glimpse

Do not let your heart be held in one place

Take a deep breath and envision yourself on a floating cloud

Letting your mind wander and your body break apart

Every part forming a mosaic, a picture of what your life truly is

No one is keeping you from reaching your goal

Winner or Loser means nothing when you have endless choices

Do you hear those sounds of silence?

Or do your ears deceive you as that one thought passes by that could've been

You didn't miss him; he was just amongst the many others

The one idea that had haunted you up to this very day

Do not give it to what others want; Give in to what they want from themselves

Help those who are surrounded by their past mistakes

Time is an essence that takes many forms

And what's best for you, is what is best for the world

Tell me when you were truly happy

And I'll show you a nice guy standing right in front of you

Tell me a poet who speaks the truth

For he chooses not to, instead to give you the falsehood

To tell you what only few others wish to hear

As the night sky begins to clear, and your heart wakes up

Never open your eyes when you search

The heart has taken over

The sun begins to appear as a bouquet

Blooming into a day of prosperity and zeal

Inspiring you to mark another chapter in the world of hopelessness

Only to be overridden by the shadows of fate

So tell me…

Tell me…

Tell me one more time
