Once Upon a Dream

I often  think about a time in my far distant past
When life was less complicated and dreams never died,
A time when love really lasted forever
And nothing stood in my way
There were no obstacles that I couldn't defeat
No person or object that could hold me down
I was weightless, flying through the night
On the wings of an angel
To dreams of loves embrace
Those times have ended now
No Neverland for me
I am no Peter Pan or Tinkerbell
Not Tigerlily or the Lost Boys
I am simply Me
That's all I can Hope to Be
Everyone has to grow up sometime
But I will always have that
Once Upon a Dream
That One special day when all my cares went away
Where I was happy for at least a little while
But time has changed us, each in turn
My Peter Pan exists no more
For the Boy I loved so dear
Has become a stranger to me
I look his way and I cannot find the person he used to be
Is it because of me? Did I bestow this unbegotten
Torture upon his already broken heart?
Or was it her, that girl the one after me
Who Loved him much less then he deserved?
Who took his heart and threw it on the floor
She who shattered his world into a million pieces
I wish that I had known then what I know now
That I could have spared him that unrelentless pain
A never ending memory reel that has yet to cease
Every aspect of his life until now, affected and left in ruin
Maybe someday Peter too shall remember that day
And Remember our Once Upon A Dream
Perhaps that memory won't haunt him like hers does
But open his heart and his eyes once more
To Remind him what it was to be happy
And how it felt to be young and in love
Maybe one day my friend will come back to me
Someday he'll see, and remember that Once Upon a Dream
