A Dream

I fell asleep with a tear in my eye and a beat in my heart.
Saw life pass me by on a horse drawn cart.
Not very quickly though; just enough
For me not to have time to pack all my stuff.
Left me standing there alone and in fear.
The silence so loud that I couldn't hear.
Clumsy and deaf, I tried to catch up.
Feeling half empty, as is my cup.
Everything in slow motion, and all I could see
Were all of the things I wanted to be
Leaving me standing alone by the road.
So I sat down crying, remembering the day
When I thought all these things would come my way.
Stranded by life and broken by time,
Is when I realized they'll never be mine.
