Memories

I sit here alone in the dark
Wondering why I'm falling apart
So many thoughts flooding my mind
Tearing me down from the inside

The Universe has conspired against me
It gave me a glimpse of a future so heavenly 
It showed me how perfect my life could be
Then slowly pushed it away from me

And now I'm left holding on to nothing 
In the sea of my thoughts I'm slowly drowning 
And the sweet memories have now turned menacing 
Oh how they mock me, I am now nothing 

Indulgence

Maybe I will never know your love 
Or be the one that you usually dream of 
Maybe your heart will never be mine
And I'll never see the look of desire in your eyes 

Maybe you're not mine to have and to hold
And I will find myself locked out in the cold
Maybe the memories we make won't last 
And I find myself a prisoner of the past

Maybe I'm not good enough to be your man
God knows I really tried to be a better man
Maybe it isn't written in the stars
Maybe it's fate to have a heart full of scars

Maybe you'll think of me once in a while 
The unfortunate soul who loved you out of time
And maybe that would make you smile 
To know that you're loved beyond the barriers of time
