The Dreams

I have a thousand reasons not to work,
but I have only one reason to work, and that is my dream.

I have no motivation, no discipline anymore,
I only have a dream. I worked yesterday, I work today, and I will work tomorrow.

A thousand failures stand in my way,
yet for the sake of one victory, I refuse to give up.

I am enduring every defeat, every insult, every humiliation,
because one day, my time will come.

I am breathing for one reason alone,
because one day, this dream will come true.

I have no reason to live,
yet I am still here because I have a dream.
