The forest of fantasy
Caught the fire of truth
Down came the daydreams
And thoughts of eternal youth
The trees of infinity
Came to their finite end
The vines of false hope
Were now dead
The blue sky of tomorrow
Turned to the gray of today
As reality settled in
The forest burnt away
I plant another forest
As I sit here today
Knowing It will burn down
Again someday
