Die for the dream

So many patterns in this world,

I too am a pattern,

How many arts on this planet,

I too am an art,

Focus keeps me fastened,

Triumph fills me with enthusiasm,

Soul searching makes me intelligent,

Pain always soothes me,

No any secrets,

Just hard work matters,

Do not rely only on talents,

Summon up my mind do shout,

"You've got this!"

Keep remembering my dream,

It fills me with steps,

Till the ultimate,

Die thinking, what's my dream,

Suffer from the dream,

Then victory follows me,

I always keep polishing my talents,

It blows the weaknesses far,

I am the best,

That's it.

    Your poetry has great depth, Esala. Well done! This line really made me think: "Pain always soothes me" . . . it is so true. Perhaps it is the endorphins, but perhaps it is by means of contrast.
