Which is the dream sleeping or waking

Unending cycles we are all making

In and then out we slip every day

Our spirit's fly free as the body doth lay

Birth on one plane is death on another

But death's just a word and so is the other

No death doth exist life just changes form

The spirit's eternal it's essence reborn

We sleep in the spirit and come back to earth

Then sleep in the body and our spirits rebirth

Two masks of the soul both part of the same

All droplets divine of eternal pure flame

A caterpillar 'dies' a butterfly's 'born'

Its essence the same but with new winged life form

And so too for us as we shed each disguise

The truth of our being lies deep in our eyes

Illusion or Maya it's all in the mind

What you think is the truth you surely will find

For the mind doth create all that you see

All that you are doth come forth from thee

Our spirit's are shaped by all that we think

And our bodies become what we eat and drink

We have control over all that we do

The life that you live is created by you

So stop blaming others when thing's don't go right

You have the power to change darkness to light

Create dreams of love enjoy all that you do

Then watch as your dreams manifest love unto you
