“Fading Away”
By Ashley O’Hare
Fading away
into the light of day
I’m sorry to say
I’m glad you can’t stay.
It was fun while it lasted,
but it was always too good to be true.
Dreams never make sense;
like the picture of me with you.
A new day.
A new chance.
A new start.
A new life.
Beginnings can be terrifying,
but nothing
in this world or virtual reality
scares me more
than beginning each day
on a broken record
with you.
