when i close my eyes...
i feel freedom...
i feel released from the shackles of my sorrows...

but my soul weeps...
my mind is weak, my will, easily broken to pieces...
my mind reaches out for an escape....

when i reach for an elusive glint of hope....
i reach for stars....
i reach for moments of relief....

but tears fall...
my memories are forever to be reached...
my memories are never to be held on to...
