Once I had a dream
which possessed me long ago
which strove me to live longer
and motivated to strive harder
Once I had a promise
to keep for the rest of me
to bring forth happiness and joy
to wait for each and every moment
From the rest of my world
imprinted upon me
the promise I made
conquered by love
Now like a tree against all odds
Withering and long forgotten
yet standing tall upon the rest
waiting from a well kept promise
Its been long ago
everything ends well
but then awakened by the call
like the last leaf on the bow
Sure i didn't forget
The promise I made long ago
I just didn't make it
late for that last minute call
Looking back at the time
where did I go wrong
It is still there
standing so tall
Now I cannot return back
nor rewind the moment
there is no hesitation
for the unfulfilled promise
Should i forget
with no regrets
the song of my heart
tuned to what is now
should I be thankful
for the power of that promise
that kept me going
that gave me strength
to live and be happy
content with what i have
Is that the purpose of dream
to believe beyond compare
to live with hopes and wishes
to survive with light and joy
Now, am happy and free
the purpose is well served
what I am now I bestowed
upon the unfulfilled promise
