Perfect Enemy

The sun sets slowly, fading out of my view
Leaving behind the colors I once knew
The wind carries silent whispers of days long gone
But I know it’s time for me to move on
Where is my place, where do I belong?
Confused by decisions that once felt safe
I walk this way, but the course is still hard to see
Countless thoughts circle silently above me
A storm is rising, no way back in sight
What once was clear now fades into the night
Awake, night after night
The moon stares down, cold and bright
The depth devours me, pulling me in
I reach out my hand but grasp at nothing within
Into the void, where echoes won’t spin
Torn between roads that I can barely see
But something inside says this is where I should be
Caught in between, but I'm choosing to try
Letting go of the past as I reach for the sky
No map in my hands, just dreams to guide
I’ll find my own way, with hope by my side
One step at a time, with my heart open wide
Break through to complete myself
Forever my perfect enemy
I’ll hold onto the past, as I set myself free
A new dawn breaks, the night fades away
With every goodbye, there’s more to say
I’ll carry the past in the depth of my heart
Grateful for it all, even as we part
Standing at the edge, unsure what I will find
Embracing the unknown, with an open mind
Eager to unveil the secrets within myself
Ready to take the leap, learning to trust oneself
Searching for hold, searching for myself
Trapped in the golden cage of time
Chasing dreams that are still mine
Still caught in the silence
Lost in my mind
Forever a part of me
Forever my favorite enemy
