Dreams and Reality

Yesterday we laughed
And loved
And dreamed...
Today we love and cry
Loving no less
Yet suddenlly how wide the bridge
Between reality and a dream...
Today we dream
Yet cry...
And love
And cry
Dry eyed...
It hurts when we swallow!
Yesterday we laughed
And loved
And dreamed!

Thought i'd poke around a bit; glad I did.. (one note) put a T in the word hurts. Yet suddenly how wide the bridge, between reality and a Dream.. Surreal TC
