Vanishing Dreams

Hold on tight Shed some light Wet your apetite Do not let them slip away Or they start to lose their colour day by day, year by year Right into thin air There you stand You seem to have forgotten Once when you were a little boy Building castles of dreams with joy There you now stand You front, inspired by fustration Surrounded by countless restrictions Vanishing Dreams Fading away quietly into empty streams It is easy to give in without a bother Lose your freedom in a common fashioned order While your dreams vanish one after the other Our sons and daughters are still cradling them Nurturing their stems On their own conditions and terms So hold on tight Wet your apetite Make your dreams come true While there is still light Copyright 2005 - Sylvia Chidi
