All your dreams can come true, if you have the courage to pursue them. - Walt Disney


I didn’t know what to do, all by myself,
I felt like an old book just left on the shelf.
And all the dreams I'd let myself dream,
I paid for every day with a heart torn at the seam.

I'd stopped hoping long ago,
And now I know,
I was right to let it all go.
You came and lifted me into the clouds from my place so low.

Now I know the happiness I thought would never be mine,
You entered my world and made my sun shine.
I was incomplete, lost before I met you,
But now I have found my missing piece, my lonely days are through.

I need you, I love you, I can now hope again too,
The odds seem in my favour, will I get to keep you?
I want you here in my life, with you I’m better, I’m stronger, so
I am no longer the hopeless case that you used to know.

For anybody who thinks the person they love is out of their league, this poem is to remind you that in love, status, achievements and perfection are not sought for - only loyalty and truth comprise the criteria.
