The Dream

The Dream
Can you regret a dream

That never did exist

You question your self esteem

Cause all rational emotions have been dismissed

You wish to sleep in one more hour

So you don't need to see the disappointment

It's that feeling causing you to cower

Hoping for the astonishment

It's so hard to remain quiet

When you have so much to say

But you remain compassionate

Cause of the feelings you don't want to betray

Sometimes the stars have more to show

Light-years away sometimes they speak more as well

And show you still have a life to take slow

Mysteries to still foretell

Sometimes it's an irrational fear

That's causing you to stop

But the past you hold so dear

It's the future you should swap

Stars will not glow forever

And our lives will one day end

What if in the end we never 

Got to see the dream actually transcend
