My young heart once dreamt like that of a fairy tale,
Like being in a paradise with my King, living happily ever after.
A childish dream yet too superficial surely I’ll fail,
But in my heart it dwells, through years I bear.
I was discriminated for that dream, for which they said it was too impossible to happen for me,
But hey if my dream is too much it won’t cost a penny.
I tried finding my luck, facing, withstanding obstacles along my way,
Yet that dream remains and the passion to fulfill grew each passing day.
No words can express the happiness that overwhelmed me,
As I lay my eyes on my King it was so delightful to see.
Suddenly it came without notice,
It was all in God’s will to whom I praise.
Love blossomed; it filled our hearts and made us one,
Cherishing every moment together we had so much fun.
But rough roads appeared, tore down not just the dream but also the love that just begun;
It came suddenly, and then suddenly it was gone.
There I was pondering with my freshly broken heart,
Losing someone you love, I never thought it was that hard.
I never lost hope; I know one day My Dream will find me;
And only God can decide and let it be.
My life went on with full of bitterness,
It lost its beauty, passion and grace.
A once joyful life seem to reach its end,
A happy face without the chain of sadness is what I pretend.
Then there; My Dream approached as expected,
It brought back the life that in my heart had created.
Never would I be sad and be alone in vain.
For My dream will stay and will never leave me again.
