Illusion of Yesterday

The loves I’ve had and the loves I lost,
Seems my life has been lived and my dreams tossed.

I wake in the morn and reach for my grave,
All while I put on the smile for an early save.

My day presses through with thoughts of you,
Was it an illusion the way you felt too?

I dream so little that my thoughts are mixed between,
Somewhere and nowhere yet the song repeats for you and me.

My thoughts are lost so easily as I shutter with fear,
Worried that yesterday will soon bring my death near.

Yet I am the one that moved without,
I left and continued still with doubt.

I am the light that faded long before you ever knew,
My love, my heart and how much I cared for you.

I was lost in the dream I had so long ago,
That I forgot the rules and I know you know.

I am the illusion that still lingers in that empty space,
between your sleep and awake I can see your beautiful face.

Carry on and remember the illusion that was so near,
Remember the heart I had when you were here.

The illusion is gone and I am all that remains,
Here in this black nothing and it always rains.
