True To YourselfA Poem by Riley BrayIn this murky river of tarnished dreams, I have found something pure.
Straining to hear something
Hidden in this broken dream Hoping for a light I think I'll never see Just a hand to pull me on my feet. Nothing is forever Unless we let it be You and I together We could change history. Just open your eyes and see Just open them and believe And we'll be free. I see a hand stretched out to me Misty fingers glittering Lifted from my reverie To see a face smiling down at me. You say Nothing is forever Unless we let it be You and I together We could change history. Just open your eyes and see Just open them and believe And we'll be free. Never Ever In a million nightmares Not in a billion waking moments Or a trillion wistful melodies Have I felt this warm bonfire This sensation of rising higher And higher And higher... And now I know Nothing is forever Unless we let it be You and I together We could change history. Just open your eyes and see Just open them and believe And we'll be free. This isn't customary At least its not for me I'm floating on a dream And you are all I see. You take all focus when I think And you are the breath in me And I promise you as you promised me That if you ever fall in too deep Just look and see And now that nothing is forever Unless we let it be.
