Dreams

Perhaps I'm being childish
or even a bit naive,
but I often find myself
with my heart upon me sleeve.

I can't explain my thoughts
for they often elude my mind,
I want to explain something to you
but it may be stepping out of line.

I have had tears of sorrow
and laughter of joy,
I know that it's a love that can't be
it's a foolish dream for a hopeless boy.

Allow me to apologize for saying this
it may only destroy us as we are,
but as for both situations
I don't think that happiness is too far.

To dream the foolish dream
to find solace in a lie,
knowing it can't be real
we wish we could simply cry.

It cannot happen
stopped by pride,
the human race is dying
willing to be slaughtered in stride.

Don't leave me alone
I have no one else to hold,
I sit in a stirred motion
watching as the letters fold.

My mind is clouded
by thoughts of lust,
only to find
you're the last to trust.

Honor bound to life
and fear holding me down,
I feel I am alone
perhaps never to be found.

The tears are gone
and the pain sets in,
I am only here
because of my sin.

This note shall end
in perhaps a sad way,
I don't think it will be found
