SOLD DREAM

Just like the clearing of a dark cloud 
Dream faded away without fulfilling it's pride
Like a beep of light dream died 
Eyes were widely open rushing out tears with regret 

Can the crops be blamed for washing away by an erosion?
Can the river be blamed for turning into flood? 
Can I be blamed for my failure?
But heaven sees me I tried 

Dream were sold to fear 
Another path was taken but man can't overtake, perhaps, might, with care 
Another dream is being dreamt 
Fear has purchased one man's dream but with no regret 

Dream has been sold to fear and anxiety 
Man feared to tried again and later failed 
Dream of long ago is being sold and anxiety has it claimed 
Fear to fail finally led to failure in reality
