1:25am, empty....

Screaming till there's no air left, with an everlasting stare my heart goes cold and the tears freeze to my face....losing all hope that was once instilled in a boy with a dream.

Grew up in a small town wearing a big crown, walking with a smile as big as million dollar man. Time goes by so fast one grows too fast. Things change, politicians blamed. Tears flow like the rivers that go through forests and mountains.

Boys become men and move away, towns shrink, dreams fade. We all walk away wishing to return to a time before chaos became devine. Ambitions grind with thoughts and time goes by. Locked in a dying city looking to get out of this prison. People just trying to make an honest living and retire after there hard work has been done and a man just starting the walk into that land but can't grasp a plan.

Now screaming until the air is gone sitting in the dark alone, no silence in the moment but the thought of a time that was once gold which is now just a sparkle in ones mind. Wondering if all the time that was spent on some papers was worth the dimes put out by those a generation before who believed they were putting there faith in a boy to give him a better life.

Suns pass and moons come and the one gives it there all but it seems luck doesn't always come around in the work force, eventually one cracks, there heart freezes and eventually hope is all lost....left screaming in the dark until engulfed and no air left wishing one would get a break for once and wishing that others that had sacrificed themselves in some way or another could walk instead of him.
