I lay my heart before your feet
So trusting
Unwary
Not a single fear
I gave you my dreams
I gave you all I had to give
I gave you all of me
I gave you the option to either tread
Or leave me be
And love every gritty part of me
and treat me with care...

But, you cast away
All trust I had in you
You betrayed me
And you tread on my dreams,
Not softly
But with force and
Intent
To hurt
Me
Such an innocent being.

Oh, "tread softly because you tread on my dreams"
But you decided not to
You decided to
Tread
On my dreams.
