Dreaming

Allowed to follow a dream
Life may not hold all it seems
It may not hold the answers we seek
We can run but cannot hide
From feelings we have inside
Fire burns deep within our soul
Wants, needs, the air we breathe
In truth and honesty we survive
Just what we feel inside
Underneath earth's blue skies
Dreams can die or come true
It really is all up to you.
