Point of No Return

BY CAROLE NICHOLS


When all the dreams you've dreamed,
Are shattered and scattered on the wind;
The pieces left are naught but dust,
That would take too long to find and mend.

When all your hopes become hopeless,
And your heart is broken beyond repair;
When you hurt so bad you cannot cry,
You find yourself too numb to care.

There is a tragic place you reach,
The mind decides it's all futile yearning;
It makes you give up on life and love,
You reach the point of no returning.

Your soul embraces the empty void,
As you say goodbye to all that was dear;
Then the blood shall cool in a forsaken heart,
For the point of no return is here.
