I had the dream to follow my heart and stand up for what's right

I had a dream. I had the dream to follow my heart and stand up for what's right.  I might be sad about my failures, but I would truly regret, only the chances I didn't take.

And things went good. I was blessed with overwhelming success, inspiring  friendships and remarkable experiences. I didn't smoke, I didnt drink, i didnt drug, I was lucky to be great at school, I was furtunate to be great at sports. I had a special talent for music, for arts, for math, for science. Everybody was proud of me, everybody wanted what I had.

Than the day came, on which I learnt that dreams can just vanish from one day to another. And I couldnt do anything. I had somehow failed, but I had no idea how. And I lost what I knew as family, I lost what I knew as home. And I am afraid it might not come back.

But I had a dream. I had the dream to follow my heart and stand up for what's right.  I might be sad about my failures, but I would truly regret, only the chances I didn't take.

And things went good. I was blessed with overwhelming success, inspiring  friendships and remarkable experiences. I was lucky to be great at universities, made degrees and awards, I was great at work, got promotions and recognitions beyond belief. I was in love with a great girl and she liked me back. Everybody was proud of me, everybody wanted what I had.

Than the day came, on which I learnt that dreams can just vanish from one day to the other. And I couldnt do anything. I had somehow failed, but I had no idea how. And I lost what I knew as love, I lost what I knew as trust. And I am afraid it will not come back.

But I had a dream. I had the dream to follow my heart and stand up for what's right. I might be sad about my failures, but I would truly regret, only the chances I didn't take.

And things went good. I was blessed with overwhelming success, inspiring  friendships and remarkable experiences. I was lucky starting successful companies, I was blessed with great colleagues, I pursued new hobbies, I traveled the world. I found new talents, new people I liked and inspired others to be the person they wanted to be. Everybody was proud of me, everybody wanted what I had.

Than the day came on which I learnt that dreams can just vanish from one day to the other. And i couldnt do anything.  I had somehow failed, but I had no idea how. And I lost what I knew as hope, I lost what I knew as myself. And I am afraid it will not come back.

I had a dream. I had the dream to follow my heart and stand up for what's right.

I am sad about my failures, and, I don't regret the chances I took.
But without a family, without a home, without love, without trust, without hope and without myself - what is there to follow, what is there to stand up for ?
