American Dreamer

People have starved, countries been bought. New diseases found, while old ones still kill, Imaginative children, doped up on pills. People killed daily in the name of their God, The Earth is more ruined, to give a few jobs. Still through all this darkness, and never ending sorrow, There is still one thing, I'll be sure of tomorrow. Whether our time on Earth is shorter than before, Whether we forget what living was for. I said I loved you, and that never changed, Even if life has left us astranged. I know I shouldn't miss you as much as I do, You've moved on with life and I know I should too. Each year life is different, and yet still the same, Each year I get sad at the sound of your name. I hope you are happy, that I truly mean, Still don't be angry, that you are my dream. Know that a dream is not real, won't kill like a war, It's just my way, of loving you more.
