Poem: "Castles In The Air"

I'm building castles in the air.
A foolish thing, I know,
But I can never escape the desire
To arrange my life just so.

I'm building castles in the air,
I'm planning out each part
Hoping none of my bricks will fall
And crush my fragile heart.

I'm building castles in the air
Though castles they may not seem
They hold the treasure of all my hopes,
My wishes, and my dreams.

I'm building castles in the air
Though I know someday I'll find
Castles of fantasy, and those of reality
Are very different kinds.

I'm building castles in the air
Though a prince I do not seek.
Just a simple, honest man to be
Friend, comfort, and helpmeet.

I'm building castles in the air
And I know someday I'll see
While I built them, God was laughing
For He had a better plan for me.
