To Rush It All

It was a dream pursued too fast
a motivation that was too good to last 
simply a hope for something that could not be achieved 
a magic trick that disappeared through the sleeve 

It was not that it was disasterous 
or that it had no chance to work
I was too spontaneous 
and took one too many a look 

I rushed it all without thought
and immediacy I sought 
now it is gone 
like a sappy love song

I wish I could take it all back
but my actions have struck me like a heart attack 
I cannot change what has been done
Once again I have not won 

A faint part of it still lives
and I hope it forgives
the speed I took 
without a single look
