Real?

Was it ever?

 

Just a trick of the light or a blink of the eye?

 

Just a dream I had; barely remembered, why?

 

The more time passes, the more unreal it seems,

I'm blinded by high beams

 

All I can see is the vague outline where my life used to be;

 

Everything that I used to know now a stranger to me

 

All I remember clearly is the regrets

 

Sun that used to shine has said goodnight and set

The vague outline -- a wonderful turn of phrase. One minor suggest, when I read it aloud, I want to take out the contraction and say I am blinded by high beams ... but, as always, poetic license is the rule.

Thanks, and I see what you mean, or at least I think I do, and I agree and will make some changes!
