Delusions

By kenneth

I am just a daydreamer
I am just a pathetic fool
Losing myself to my desire

I hear the whisperer
Calling out to this fool
As I gaze into the fire

My dreams will never come
For they are to grand
Though this is what I feel I need

I have now become lonesome
No one seems to understand
They think my ego I must feed

My hopes and dreams
My desires and my goal
It all amounts to nothing

They say nothing is as it seems
I say what is the price of my soul
Ill trade it for something

Everything I desired and wanted
It doesn’t matter anymore
As the rubble crumbles under my feet

I look around and I feel taunted
My fail heart lies on the floor
As I hold my head down in defeat

The heavens weep on a fool
Who chased after something
That only existed in his heart

This hopeless fool
Stopped his running
When his delusions fell apart
