Empty Dreams

Empty dreams upon my bed
Vacant dreams in my head
Useless dreams have come and gone
Where are the dreams of summers' long

Winter dreams laden with snow
Has the dream really gone frozen_cold
What dreams were dreamed in vain
Which ones gave glory where glory died and bled

Dreaming of bountiful harvest
Where are the fields of corn and cotton?
Maybe some died for lack of showers
Did I only dream away the hours__

Just one soul that has the zeal
Then a magnificant harvest yield
Let me dream just one more dream
A dream of fields ready for harvesting

I like that one it's very tasteful_ meaning it's very magical like I can tell where you want to go, and what you want to dream. It's like a story in my head, and I also since I'm only 14; I like the BIG words. haha
