Illusions

These tears are not my own

They can never, must never be

This chapter must end

A new one begin

But goodbye is even harder

When it's never said

An open book with empty pages

In my other hand a faded photo

The years ago, the years ahead

Twistedly flow together

In this present reality

So untrue to life itself

The myth of family ends

Here

With a goodbye to last

Forever
