The Field of Broken Dreams I sit alone and think In the field of broken dreams Sorting through broken promises Ripped at the seams I sit and I wonder About the trials of life We waste so much time Feeling hurtful pain and strife I try to brush away the tears From my heavy heart It's so hard to keep going When you don't know where to start I run around in circles Do I stop or do I begin In the field of broken dreams It's a race you never win People come and people go But I stay here just the same Those people will not save me For it's me they have to blame Once again I'm all alone Sitting in the rain In the field of broken dreams Lost with all my pain |

WOW!!! Tragically beautiful outpouring of feelings. My thoughts are with you m'friend. All my love, Jeffrey I lie awake in a world filled with dreams, but dreams can be so real when you don't know you're asleep |

Broken dreams may mend A reach from the hand of a friend You sew the cost Tears we're lost The tear becomes a seam Patched from a broken dream The dream weaver hems your fashion Reopening the door for passion |

CS* This piece has sadness within it but also realizations that living in pain only brings more pain...you have such a gift. It's an honor to read your work! The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams ~Eleanor Roosevelt~ |
