Dream

DREAM
Dream until your head is no more
dream

DREAM
when you dream
let not your mind's eye see it as a mere picture
but a future
DREAM

DREAM
see the dream as a skeleton
And envelop it with flesh
Until your imaginations are no more
DREAM

DREAM

After enveloping with flesh,
put life into it until your breath is no more
DREAM

DREAM
When you breathe into your dream,
It might seem naked
Clothe your dream with pertinacity
Until your faith is no more
DREAM

DREAM
Dream until your dream metamorphosises into reality
DREAM

DREAM
Dream until success and your dream form a team
DREAM.

So far as you live
DREAM.
