A Glimmer
It's worth a shot, they said
And you have nothing to lose
Hundreds of tries
Or hundreds of failures
It doesn't matter
So stop counting till you do it
Or keep going till you get it
The more you dream, the more you dream
Don't let them steal your night!
And when you wake up in the morning,
Make sure that the moon is safe
In somewhere else,
Someone else is in need of it
Dreaming is universal!
You think that it's as dark as a bottomless pit
Where you can't find a glimmer of hope
Or a path to lead you out
But in no time,
You find yourself there
Flying like a butterfly
Singing like a nightingale
Maybe you are dreaming
Maybe... you are not
Remember not to count
Not to stop
Just keep going
Keep doing
Don't hesitate!
