"Lost Dreams"

Lost Dreams

My mind goes back to another time.
In my youth when all things were fine.
Dreams of the future were coming true.
Not a day found me depressed or blue.


Life looked so easy in my young eyes.
The future was mine to have as a prize.
The world promised a life with no limits.
Use the best and discard the remnants.


My imagination was great and ran wild.
Thoughts of a young boy a little child.
I was impatient for tomorrow to come.
Ignoring the days and what was done.


I lived only for my wants and dreams.
I regret not living for all the real things.
Time has given the chance to change.
I have used it in my life to rearranged.

If time permits I'll redo things I can.
Start living in reality like other men.
Live for today, not think of the future.
Dream in sleep and not in the day.
