Lost Dreams

Shackled to life by the prison I made
promises of love never felt, never said
cracks in each lie I so carefully laid
love in his eyes I so wrongfully read
lead to this road I so doggedly tread

Once I was young... Full of hopes, full of dreams
giving no thought to the road I might take
or smiles given freely are not what they seem
for love won to easy often is fake
mistakes that I thought I never would make

    first of all the picture looks like a bad seed. next, love is so decieving we give it up so soon. but that's what guy's want and both dont want. one night when i knew april was jealous of me. when i droped her off she grabed me and kissed me on the cheek. that kiss lasted me the whole night long. for i knew it was all that she could give in the circumstances. to this day i don't know if it was her or God that made the magic trick. but i'm still under her spell. john
