Time To Say Goodbye

time to say goodbye
all roads have reached the end
all ended up in the void
of nothingness

time to say goodbye
the distance shows the truth
all illusions unmasked
leaving nothing to look at

time to say goodbye
I’m watching false ancient gods laughing
as they move to the next believer
to charm and consume

time to say goodbye
and save myself
from the web of deception
that trapped me in the mirage

time to say goodbye
to fantasy words that had no meaning
to angry voice that branded my skin
to heartless wall that bruised my bones

time to say goodbye
hope betrayed me again
it’s cold and ruthless
dressed in gown of comfort

time to say goodbye
some things can’t change
same play different actors
same theatre different masks

time to say goodbye
and leave the whole play
the show must go on
hypnotizing those who stayed

time to say goodbye
sharp edges of truth
cutting into wisdom
that’s the only road for me

time to say goodbye
the time of offerings ended
‘be your own rock for yourself’
my new world ahead without rocks

time to say goodbye
I’m closing all gates to this space
not looking back
never opening it again

time to say goodbye
old blossoms of love purged
no trace of it left
I can finally breathe freedom

time to say welcome
to the new space and time
past is dead
I am alive
