Dreams
Dreams
When I was young I went to sea
Upon a ship of dreams.
But through the years, ‘twas clear to me
That nothing’s as it seemed.
I dreamed I was a princess fair
Stolen from my home
And carried to the dragon’s lair
With nothing of my own.
Escaped to seek my kingdom lost,
To find my family true,
But found myself at myself, at my heart’s cost,
Unwelcome and a fool.
I dreamed I’d found true love at last,
But fear got in the way.
And seeking vengeance on the past,
I threw that love away.
I sabotaged relationships
To keep from growing close;
I lied to and betrayed the trust
Of those I needed most.
I vowed I’d never love again,
To quarantine my soul,
Atone for all my wretched sins,
This misery, my goal.
A loveless marriage, to protect
A heart I’d never give,
Yet fate plays games we don’t expect
And forces us to live.
And now I dream of only you
Who sees beyond my flaws
Who treasures me with love that’s pure
Who fought through all my walls.
When I was young, my ship of dreams
Was dashed upon the rocks
But in your love I’ve found the peace
At which my soul now docks.
