Shattered Dreams (Original Song)

I am a self-taught musician. This was my first piano composition, which I wrote when I was sixteen.
Although I do not sing, here are the lyrics I wrote to this song.

Shattered Dreams

I'm standing, so helpless,
searching for the right words to say.
You're leaving, my heart aches.
I listen to your footsteps fade.
The loneliness drifts over me,
as I sit here silently.
I fight to keep the pain inside,
but it's something I can't hide.

Shattered dreams are all you left behind for me.
Shattered dreams have become my reality.
I would give anything to hold you once again.
I wish things could be like the way they were back then.

The silence is so loud
as I stare at the empty street.
The sunset is fading,
the lightness and the darkness meet.
Gray clouds of sadness hang above,
and shadows cast over my love.
I reach out to catch the lost dream,
but it slips away from me.

Shattered dreams are all you left behind for me.
Shattered dreams have become my reality.
I would give anything to hold you once again.
I wish things could be like the way they were back then.

You are so distant now, your silhouette fades in the moonlight.
The storm has come, the rain is falling from the empty sky.

@gadh98 I have never heard of Dax Johnson. Do you have a link to that song?

[gadh98]

i've just heard some piano music of Dax Johnson (RIP) and i notice some similarities between your style to his. hear for example this theme: Dax Johnson - still small voice
