O To Dream
O to pursue, wish, and to dream
Not for selfish ambition, power, or self-esteem
Nor the pursuit of superficial means
Yet strive for knowledge; seek the truth
Wisdom provides cerebral clarity and cerebral youth
Internal wealth; not visual, nor clear
However; virtue, tranquility, love, and hope, o so dear
Stress, anxiety, fear, the loss of personal control
Robs one of life’s greatest attributes
That which genuinely makes us whole
So reflect on the self
Uninhibited, stay strong
Fight for what’s right
Letting go of all perceived wrong
Identify the good life, well-being, stay true
O to dream
Dream; indeed do
