Eventually
If you build your dream beside the ocean,
and it will be overtaken by the wind and sea.
eventually
Build it on a mountain
and it will slide into the falcon's beak.
eventually
Build it in the forest
and somebody will put it to fire and madness
eventually
Build your dream on the plains
and it will be taken by the wind
heat and rain.
eventually
Build your dream in the city
it will succumb to a city's rage
eventually
all dreams will wither
with weather, time and men with foul intentions.
