DREAM

U were my love from way back when I was a kid

U were as real as reality

Until age made reality make me doubt you

I drifted away from you more and more as the years progressed

I filled the emptiness with excuses I justified as being grown up

But as much as I gave up on you

You never lost faith in me

You haunted me throughout my progression days

And as much as I would lie to myself that I was happy with where I was

You somehow subliminally reminded me how much more I was really worth

The realization of you again became a burning sensation in my heart

I was haunted by my own greatness

A path I had to journey and just could not ignore any longer

I had to reconnect with my inner child

Just to learn to believe and love you again

I realized you again after all roads I've travelled

Making you that much more valueable to me

Not as whimsical as the love we had in the beginning

We had to grow in our own directions first I guess

To be the force we yet to become

Dream, you are all I really had to live for...
