The dream

we all grew up scared and broken
never felt whole unless we together
never felt this vulnerable
never felt this weak
never felt this lost  
This is not how it was supposed to be

cos i was always one piece of the puzzle
one part of the dream
without each other the four of us could never be complete
the dream was never to be rich  
the dream was never to be famous
the dream was to be happy
