Analysis of A Dream Stayed A Dream
I thought
You would care for me,
I would care for you
I feel and realise now
It was only my imagination
Perhaps a dream
Since my eyes are open
I am back on my status,
Standing alone,
From where I started dreaming
To reach a reality
However, you don't exist,
For me
My hopes collapse
Absorbing tears, in it
The dream stayed a dream.
