2:50pm

and so you dream.

but nobody told you that dreams fall apart,

and you didn't look back

so,

you never thought to ask

or even think.

don't think about the negative

because,

dreams fall apart.

and if you don't watch out,

the failure will catch you off-guard,

and you'll feel the emotions.

that others feel.

the feels they feel when they let their dreams

drag them down.

and if they drag you down,

then you'll fall apart.

Then,

and only then,

Shall you realize,

maybe, 

just maybe,

that that wasn't what The Maker had in mind

for you.
