I Dreamed A Little Dream

I dreamed I was able to go back

To change things for the better

I dreamed a little dream

Full of hope

Full of regret

But after waking I realized

I would change so very little

I’d be better with my finances sure

But I wouldn’t try to go back to the relationships I’d had before

Some toxic friendships

A love that turned into a friendship

No, I wouldn’t go back

That dream will stay a little dream

Never realized

As I take my lessons learned and forge on

Into the great unknown that is life

I dreamed a dream last night

That I was on the brink of the great unknown

Facing the unknown

Would I be ready to jump off the cliff

If the situation calls for it

Or will I stay where I’m comfortable

Will I ever be able to jump into unknown again

Or am I too safe and happy

Where I am

I’ve taken my lessons learned

I’ve taken my regrets and built them into something better

But am I ready to jump again

Without a parachute

Am I ready to take on all the risks again

Only time will tell if I’ll be able to jump into another unknown

And survive the fall
