*And the dream* *that you dream* *falls apart* *at it's very seam* *as that moment unsure* *arrives indiscriet* *you feel so affraid* *then when* *you look down* *you yell inside* *wanting to hide* *that dream falling apart* *as you loose your head* *trust in yesterday instead* *like saying goodbye* *to your dream forever,* *forever was once so proudly never* *no never ever* *yet feckless you gave in to fear* *looked down* *at yesterday,* *now you sigh* *walk away* *when dreams fall apart* *cancelled* *due to yesterday.*

Not all my dreams come true, but many have already, there's always hope, but sometimes dreams will hurt us if they come true, and are not meant to be. Our maker gives us special things that he knows we need.

I couldn't help thinking of the parallel to the Beatles's, "Yesterday."

Yes, once we develop a dream, we must continue to look toward making that dream happen, lest it be shattered to pieces simply by looking back to the past. Nicely stated.
