Don'T Let the Dream Die

Do you remember how we used to play? The innocent laughter washed our cares away Do you remember how we used to sing? The same old song about the beauty of spring Do you remember how we used to play? Disregard for the future, we lived for today There and then was the happiest place The thoughts of an end were so hard to embrace And now the sunshine has turned into winter What do you see when you look out the window? A wasteland where once our flowers bloomed So cold and so barren, in a cloud of gloom But how can you tell me to let the dream die? A shot at forever is worth a try How can you tell me to simply forget Condemning myself to a life of regret

"a shot at forever"....just recently experienced the part..."how can you tell me to simply forget"....I find myself saying "remember when we were like_____" ....but the forever part I guess scares people...and they are willing to let the dream slip right through their hands...all the while playing with our heart...another good poem...Shauna
