The day after it all ended
Something didn't feel right
I ransacked the shelves
Looking for old pictures and notes
Hoping to find an answer
To the predicament that shouldn't exist
Regret showed up
Rising out of the rediscovered memories
Telling me to recognise what lay in front of me
The face seemed familiar
Looked of a man once dear
And then the realisation hit
Of what left me bewildered
The day after it all ended
I saw myself
With eyes full of dreams
Eyes that spoke loud and clear
Of the life after the day
Where regret didn't exist
And the dream was near
But the day after it all ended
Nothing was how it was supposed to be
Ridden with the blemishes of reality
Life was once again what I promised
It will never be
Once again the cycle began
To build a man with a life much dear
And while the heart was still full of tears
I at least realised why
Something didn't feel right
The day after it all ended
