How can I get rid of this despair feeling?
I’m breathing yet I don’t feel alive
I’m conscious yet I am not awake
I’m walking yet like a ghost I am gliding
I’ve searched for you over hills over dale
In many lands, in every weather
I thought we could have a happy tale
Yet I can’t even be in your arms, let alone be together
Halfway in between dead and alive
I find myself breathing in long sighs
Hanging in the middle of heaven and hell
In perpetual torment I’m forced to dwell
It doesn’t take too long to see
That I’m living in my fantasy
While you’re set in your reality
I guess we are just not meant to be
The inspiration comes from a friend who is going through a pre-relationship getting to know each other phase and she finds that in that man she finds someone she has been looking for, yet they are separated by distance, culture and religion. Soon reality sets in to pull them apart from each other.
