Wilted Dreams
In the mournful march of time’s cruel hand
Dreams once vibrant now turned to sand
Clogs on cobblestones echoing despair
Silent cries fill the cold night air
Lanterns dim shadows linger long
Broken hearts hum a sorrowful song
Tears hidden behind a painted veil
Severed hopes in darkness they fail
Ah- A petal withers falls to dust
Fragile dreams betrayed by trust
Ah- In the endless night’s cruel embrace
Fading hopes leave no trace
Layers of silk can’t hide the pain
A heart shattered lost in the rain
Staring at a sky so void of light
Whispers of dreams drift out of sight
Ah- A petal withers falls to dust
Fragile dreams betrayed by trust
Ah- In the endless night’s cruel embrace
Fading hopes leave no trace
In the cold night’s relentless grasp
Searching for warmth that will never last
Gathering pieces of a dream now torn
Yearning for light forever forlorn
Ah- A petal withers falls to dust
Fragile dreams betrayed by trust
Ah- In the endless night’s cruel embrace
Fading hopes leave no trace
