Poems: Life is Life.

I Used To Dream

I used to dream a dream of a world with hopes so high,
I used to dream that this nightmare would pass by,
I once dreamed of a life worth living,
One where love wouldn't die;

I used to dream that we would all be forgiving,
That we would all be smiling,
I used to dream that none of us would have to live in fear,
That there was no price to be paid;

I used to dream that there will be no shame,
That we wouldn't have to play by the rules of someone else's game,
I used to dream that I could be me,
And everyone would love me for just being me;

I used to dream that we would all come together,
And we'll all be finally be able to see,
The things we could see,
But there's some dreams that cannot be,
For life has killed those dreams;
