Dreams and Wishes

I use to wish upon the stars when I was a little girl

As little girls usually did, I would dream my dreams

Dreams of Kings and Queens

Prince Charming and Cinderella

Dragons and Faeries

It was a time and age when I believed in dreams and wishes

That time seems so long ago now

Do I still believe

No

Life has taught me a lot of things over the years

Yet it has not taught me to believe in

Dreams and Wishes
