Th Familiar Prison Of Infinity

What is this lifetime being trapped here?
This prison that sits on this island.
Where it's night all the time
And the dark clouds hover above all.
I can't leave
But I know that the Shore Of Broken Dreams sits quietly in front of this place.

My heart, it stops to scream
But no sound is heard.
No one comes to these gates of The Familiar Prison Of Infinity.
So here I sit in this cell made just for me.

Once it was opened and I had the chance to see beyond the cold cell walls.
I got a chance to see the sunshine.
I got a chance to meet someone.
Someone who came to me
Someone who crossed the Depressed River and Shore Of Broken Dreams
Someone who loved me
Filled my heart with glee.
I was so happy I could have died.

My lips had its' first kiss.
And my heart had its' first taste of love.
We would sit in the fresh green grass and watch the stars.
We laughed and loved.
I felt alive for the first time.
My clock of love had finally gone off.
I kissed you as much as I could
Looked into the kind eyes of someone who loved me.

But then the suffering hands of loneliness grabbed ahold of me
Squeezed its' hands tighter around my neck
Tried to hold me still as I fought against it.
But no amount of fighting could have stopped me from listening to the broken words.
Broken words that came from you.
"I've fallen out of love with you, there is someone better."

And my heart, it filled with glass.
My arms and legs fell heavy with the ball and chains of depression.
My fight discontinued.
And I was thrown back into my cell of The Familiar Prison Of Infinity.
My heart is forever filled with heavy glass
So that each time I move, my heat aches.
And my mind is a constant slideshow of our forgotten love.
Which I can never forget.

So is it great that I had a chance to know your love?
Maybe, or it could just be hope that will never be satisfied.
A dream that will never know reality.
Broken imagination.
And a painful memory.
Because I know, I will never see outside these walls again.

But maybe I should be grateful.
Grateful that I got a peek of what lucky people can always see.
Grateful to know something other than hurt and loneliness.
Grateful to have loved someone.
Grateful to have gotten out.
Even if all it did was bring pain in the end.

My mind is uncertain on whether or not it was good or bad
But it has eternity to figure it out
As I lay here in my cell, lonely and cold.
Listening to the lonely waves splash quietly onto the Shore Of Broken Dreams
And imagining the field where we once laid.

And as I lay here with unheard wishes for my almost lover
I cry
Because I know this is my place
My Own Familiar Prison Of Infinity.
