Untitled 08

We built paper planes to fly us to a heaven we never knew
Sandcastles for us to rule as King and Queen
We gazed the stars as we set our hearts to the moon
Played kitchen as we went out starving
Never did doubt if we ever could make it,
For we were born in the dark 
The only light we knew was that fire we set
In the cold - the warmth we knew was from the hugs we gave
What more could we ever lose?
We meet in a world in our fantasies
A world where we have all and more
Where we win the battles we lost
Blessed off our misfortunes
We meet in a world where we not only rise but stay above
Where we carry with us no burdens 
Where we can be for each other love
Let me be for you the missing puzzle
And you walk the maze that is me
For in hopes we built 
Still though, I hope you wake up not from this dream
