Real?
Last night I burned your picture
Still floating in my head
The realization hit me
We are not really dead
You can't kill what is not living
You can't stop what never started
The lies I told myself are over
Why am I still brokenhearted?
A better place was found
We did not have to choose
We both now have a future
We did not even lose
Felt like we were on the Titanic
In the luxury of life
When it started to sink, all I could think
I have to save my wife
With the water quickly rising
You felt like you were in a cage
I tried to hear but now it is clear
We are free and must turn life's page
It's all good and I'm moving forward
Like the beating of a clock
It's strange to think the boat did not sink
It never left the dock
Last night I burned your picture
The one you were smiling still
Like everything else it went up in smoke
cause none of it was real.
