Endless Momentum

I've felt the biggest peak of my life

Beyond a perfect fantasy

Nothing would've ever gotten in the way

Love was my ultimate momentum

But there comes an end we don't know when, why or how

but there is an end

An end that gives us pain, serenity and most importantly ourselves

 

Ignorance helped me try to forget

and not hear the lonely cry

I couldn't stand hearing mama say

I want to die

One look in her eyes

shows every inch of hurt

 

Sacrifice is the battle i face everyday

Where's this balance of peace i seek?

I'm fighting over and over again

Friends get too tired of waiting

My dad is blinded by his desires

But here i am, as mama's endless momentum

 

Modesty is a part of mama now

Her smile gives me assurance

Her open wounds may never go away

But we know shes here to stay

She has constant hope to find her way
