One Plays a Lament in Reality

By WinterGrave

The wilted flower
echoed my eternity
fade away my lucidity
the stars are my sanity

shifting moonlight
plays a lament
in twilight's decline
this foreverence my hope

derived from fragile dreams
shattered by haunting screams
rebuilt under the stars
hope is my dream

a dream
only a dream
a faded scream
a trapped memory
a motion in time

in silence this orchid shines
under the sky
the moonlights shines
trapped in time
trapped in reality
this E-motion memory
this reality is my enemy
