I Was a Storyteller

by Troy Miller

I held the world in my hands, framed in light and perfect plans.Each moment was a story to weave.Now it's a dream I can retrieve.The lens of my soul used to shine, now it's clouded lost time.Just on the dreams I used to know Fading faster than I can let go.I was a story teller, a painter of a light.I was a dreamer chase the night I was a creatorA builder, a name.Now I'm just echoes of a flickering flame.Each frame was a moment life preserved Now I wonder was it all deserved?With thrills gone, the passions dry I scroll through my past and wonder why. Was it the pressure, the grind the race?Or did I just lose the spark the chase. The tools I held now feel so strange, A reminder of what I can't exchange.I was a storyteller a keeper of dreams I was alike those vibrant scenes I was a creator, a purpose, a voice.Now I'm just someone without a choice.Cannot find the fire again?Do I even know where to begin?Or is it okay to let it rest, and say goodbye to what was — my best?I was a storyteller I captured the Sun, now I'm the one who feels overrun. Maybe I'll rise or maybe I'll stay, but I'll always remember who I was...yesterday.
