Building Castles In the Sky

Wanting desiring,
Collected hopes
Land of impossibilities,
Dreams and wishes,
Stolen,
Trapped forever,
Hopes and desires,	
Held prisoner,
Unachievably kidnapped
Captured and stored,
In the castle in the sky
Millions upon millions,
Abducted,
Taken without permission,
Until we can find the key,
Opening doorways,
To our dreams,
In the meantime,
Don’t trust that old story,
Building castles in the sky,
Dreamcatcher 
Could be flying by.
