Chasing the Dream
I wake up every morning and know what to do.
I run and go check if my dream has come true.
I search in the kitchen, the bathroom, the halls.
Sometimes I wonder if it’s inside the walls?
I would tear them all down until my hands worked no more.
WAIT! Did you hear that? Was that my front door?
I fly to the door with aggressive despair.
Only to realize that no one is there.
I ask myself why? Is this how it must be?
Is there something I have done in the past haunting me?
I keep searching and looking. I look all around.
Is my dream in trouble or at home safe and sound.
I have cried till my eyes were red, swollen and sore.
I worry and worry. I can’t take much more.
HOLD ON! Oh my! I can’t believe my eyes
This is by far my favorite surprise.
My dream. It's here!. I’m holding it tight.
OH NO! OH NO! It’s just for the night…
You see, my dream doesn’t stay around long.
Yeah I know. It’s the same old sad song.
I get an hour here an hour there. Sometimes half a day.
I beg and I plead. Dont leave! Please, just stay!
Chasing this dream just to catch and release?
When will this madness finally cease?
Have you figured it out? What my dream must be?
Just go look in the mirror. Well. WHAT do you see?
