Dust

Dust to earth and ash to ocean
Evanescent, fading fast
You are all I really have

I’m not home till heaven opens
Life’s a vapor while it lasts
You are all I really have

Living for experiences
I romanticize thrill
Maximize my achievements
But I’m not satisfied still

I’m realizing, that all my striving
Is chasing wind, is chasing wind
But you free’d me, So I can just be
Nothing to prove, Nothing to lose

The vapor of humanity
A tapestry of vanity
The cycle of depravity
A carousel of fantasy

Don’t let me fall apart
Be near my wandering heart
Hold me closely through this race
Help me embrace your pacing
