To Wing a Dream

Take a dream out the window
Uncover its hair
Let it fall to the abyss
Like a star on a dare

Does it laugh, does it cry 
Does it even care?
That the one who holds it is living in fear?
Do its wings spread as it goes?
Is it stripped bare? 
This dream out the window
That you held so dear

Let it go, it will flow, it will rise 
It will share
Its potency, its power, its magical glare

Be sure it will happen, but only if you dare
