I sat with you,
And you told me about your dreams.
You told me how you wanted to go away
And see what the world is made of.
I remember how your eyes sparkled,
And how you sounded so sincere.
But when the time came to make your own decisions,
I watched as someone else took away what you held so dear.
You didn't even protest
You just shrugged your shoulders and walked away
Now I wonder where they forced you to go
And where you are today.
I wish you hadn't let them take your dreams.
I wish you had firmly said no.
Because now there is no going back.
You can never have those wants and wishes.
You never should have let them go.
