First and Last StepsA Poem by Dom Nolan"With Tired Eyes Tired Minds Tired Souls We Slept" y.
Through tired eyes I see what you really are
Standing for everything but believing in nothing A scared little kid to close to the edge Take a few steps back, take a minute to breathe Break yourself apart, organize all the pieces, throw away the bad, take a good look at the rest What makes you happy? Could you even be happy? Well make yourself happy But don't count on me to be there We don't get to be a fairy tail You don't get to win With a tired mind I found the meaning of life But who do you tell such a profound idea? Who would listen? Could this be a sign? How do I ask questions with answers? How do I give an answer by asking question? What's a good way to break to you the truth? I think I already have My souls grown tired I'm not any wiser than when this all started I expected more by the end But is this really the end Times growing thinner every second Since I stopped counting up and started counting down no one seems the same I think they know what's next It's time for all of us to sleep © 2014 Dom Nolan |
