It Was All A Dream
by Eddie Benavides

It Was All A Dream
The days that passed
The rivers run dry
The tears fade at last
Leaves fall
From the trees in fall
Still I walk smiling
amidst it all
Then I hear her call my name
Teary eyed fatigued from pain
& so I hide to escape her games
For fear that nothing
In her has changed
But who am I to judge her change
But who am I to say I've changed
For years this pace I have maintained
Until finally my love was drained
& still I'm labeled a foolish man
For the life I gave up
To hold her hand
Through all the hate
& all the lies
I still find comfort
In her eyes
This is why so long I'll try
And probably why so soon I'll die
With memories of this saddened scene
I thank the Lord
It Was All A Dream
