Analysis of Dreams



Let me live in my dreams
Where there are
No whys and no hows
A world full of reality
Full of love and happiness
Let me live in my dreams
For the sake of my life
Out of this world of fake
This world of violence
In the core of putrefaction
And misery

Let me live with my dreams
Which are all my life
Far from whys and hows
Companions of my times
In the breath of joy and smiles
Let me live with my dreams
That never hurt
Never kill and never hate
For the world of dreams
Is the world of God
And eternity

Let me live on my dreams
That give everything
With no whys and no hows
And never dry and never slim
And always foam and always grow
Let me live on my dreams
Which I have never run short of
In my world that wealth has never seen
And where flowers of luxury
Never grow and rivers of riches
Never flow

Let me live all my dreams
Out of this life
Full of whys and hows
Where one man’s heaven
Is another man’s hell
Let me live all my dreams
Let me
Let me raise dreams
Breathe dreams
Sing dreams
Dance dreams
Eat dreams
Drink dreams
Let me
Rise with dreams
Live with dreams
And die with dreams.
