Steam

Somewhere between two moments
Over there, or over then
Memories searched in vain for 
Endings, and where we begin
Blending over and over again

One year turns to another
Dares it to last all day
Yet knowing all along that they'll each have to fade away

Twisting words and thoughts 
Hiding plainly here in sight 
Actions lost to steam 
Tidings lost to slight 
Intrepid only here tonight 

Usurped by the laws of nature 
Stung by the shifting times
Echoing the dawn of man's incessant crimes

Dream of better days 
Trek on towards something new 
Over then, or over there 
Beckoning the very best in you 
Ending, beginning, growing, stagnating - watch your history accrue
