Nothing More

I will repeat once more

Thousands of things said millions of times before

I'll hold them like they're mine alone

Still blind to all we could have known

All that's left is here and now

Lines traced across their furrowed brow

Lost to time, it slips way

All that's left, none will stay

Let me forget, just for awhile 

Onward always to the next mile 

Take each step with great care 

Only pause to trace gray through my hair 

Fortune favors none at all

Night will fade, eternity fall

Opening the cracks in our skin

Night will fade, eternity begin

Still blind to all the possibilities 

Echoing through our boasts and pleas  

Never to have a final encore

Saying thousands of things millions of times before 

Eternity is left - nothing more
