To Dream Alive

I breathe
	Exhaling into the day
		My life, my hope
	My every dream
But day
	Allows not the dreams
		To arise, to come
	To be fulfilled

Night, however
	Permits dreams a birth
		A life, where play
	Becomes reality
Ah, oh gracious night 
	Allow then all lovers
		Their chance at day
	Where love can also flourish
