Wandering about with time on my hands,
Just molding castles in the sand.
Who I am and hope to be,
The answer lives inside of me.

I dream of where I once did roam,
Of happy times and home sweet home.
And as I smile on the past,
I think of the one that did not last.

You touched my world as it spun around.
But then you left without a sound.
I guess you never really knew,
This heart I gave from me to you.

I was the one with the very sad eyes.
As the emptiness caught me by surprise.
My heart like a puzzle was waiting to be solved.
Not wanting to ever again be involved.

But then one day a message was sent my way.
And I finally put that sad mask away.
As the moon cast its light upon the scenes,
I was once again filled with brand new dreams.

How could we survive without dreams? I enjoyed this while I did a little dreaming of my own.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow just a mystery. And if today is good to me, it will beat the heck out of day before yesterday!
