Do you keep a dream alive
By sleeping with your eyes
Opened wide,
Taking in a vista
Of geography in
A world map of what life
Could really be
Travelling through the
Valley of veins
Leading to the heart,
A pounding message
So provocative
Shooting stars will verify
Its elixir,
Channeling a hologram
The one real thing
Standing before me,
Touching my skin in longing
Of today’s tomorrow
Keeping the dream alive.
