The struggle between our dreams and fears
Lures us to snap rope-ends
We are drawn beyond endurance
And device strengths to hold on wishes
And splurge to life the flames of hope
We fumble with the keys to the holes on Success' door
And rake a cackling finger off its pane
Vainly slugging off the slippery floors.
Yet we lack the mind to train a key
Through its waiting misty hole.
The road to success brings us off the brick
Of future-seeking to the true lane
Of value-adding. For in truth success meets us
Where we hold still and better share values.
The path through freedom is the path through values.
A brightened pinnacle of living dreams
Emblazoned when all facts held true in a mind,
Convinces us there is strength to try another day
We know not how close to the sought diamonds we have dug
Finally bowing to seek another strand,
We send a failed shot at a timed goal.
Only when a man veers forever near
To his dreams, killing the teeming fears,
Brandishing his mind as guide,
Can a student of success be born;
Can success be born.
