childhood dreams, neatly folded, safely tucked away
wrapped within whitewashed sheets, cleansed with salty tears
by victim of perverted desires, to demons falling prey
childhood dreams, neatly folded, safely tucked away
locked away in sturdy chest, forgotten were those years
buried ‘neath emptied bottles of Zin and Chardonnay
childhood dreams, neatly folded, safely tucked away
awaiting realization after facing all those fears
time capsule to be opened in light of present day
childhood dreams, neatly folded, safely tucked away
wrapped within whitewashed sheets, cleansed with salty tears
