Shattered Dreams 6-15-98

My dreams were not a fantasy They weren’t unobtainable You could have made my dreams come true But you were only thinking of you. Simple dreams, that’s all they were Dreams of happiness and safety Of peace I asked no more of that, that I wasn’t the foolish child I didn’t asked too much You were the selfish one But those days are done Pain you’ve inflicted It’s all in the past It will not last You were wrong I am strong I’ve picked up the pieces of my shattered dreams I’ve collected them all They are all mine They have come true Because I realized, I don’t need you.
