ashes of dreams you let die

where were you that moment you decided you didnt need it? what reason did you have for choosing to live without it? was there a pro and con list or did you wake up one day and that was it? was it worth it? did you trade one passion for another? or for the "greater good" did you settle? if i may be quite honest i would plead that you arent as happy as you thought you would be. yes you chose to give it up but you will always feel it missing. and your heart will always question. granted you never have to adnit it and you can continue trying to convince yourseld this is the life you wanted. the truth is this is the life you chose, a decision you knew you could live with. but in the beginning you could not forsee how difficult it would be to live without the life you wanted, without the dream that fueled all your passions. its not too late though, you can always rekindle that fire. your dream doesnt have to sit in ashes and you dont have to regret.
