We Were the Future

We were the future once full of hope and promises We’d change the world, set it on a course to freely love, laugh and sing and dance, embrace equality. It was just a dream, an illusionary expression of what we thought could be. How have times changed? How can we still be the same? Slip away a moment into time as life progresses and continues to unwind, the timeline disappears and life remains stagnant, seemingly unchanged throughout the years. Who are you now, how do you see yourself, you movers and shakers of time gone, tell me, What is it that you still seek? The future is unfolding, give me just a little peek.
