The Dream Had Died

When I awoke today I cried

I realized that the dream had died

I burned it down without regret

It’s something I wish to forget

Another foolish Neverland

Ruined by a fate’s cruel hand

Life in the clouds does not exist

And if it did it’s one I missed

If I had it all to do again

I’d realize I can never win

As I watch these dreams go up in smoke

I understand…

If it’s never built it can’t be broke

        Yes. So true. That last line got me as in the past I have thought that.

        It is sadly, a logical approach sometimes.
