Dreams



No one can make your dreams come true, but you.
I can listen and can talk until I'm blue in the face: I can do it all with poise and grace. But ...No one can make your dreams come true, but you.

I can push and I can beg-but a round hole can handle a square peg. No one can make your dreams come true but you.

I can make all the right connections. Point you in the right direction. But no one can make your dreams come true, but you.

I am here for you to follow. I cna be your bridge over troubled water, but no one can make your dreams come true but you.
