Jump in with one foot

And it will reveal itself as a lie

Hold it with one hand,

And you will grasp only a part of it

Look at it with eyes wide shut 

And you will experience only a fraction of its color prism

Hold half of it in your heart,

And the concept of its wholeness will escape you 

Dream better than the best you know, nothing but the best

Don't go at it, go for it

Meet it with all or nothing

A brisk walk will not do

Circle it with speed and might 

Empty your dreams along the way

Ask for better than the best you know, nothing but the best

Jump in with both feet

And it will surely reveal itself to be true to you only

Don't hope on someone else borrowed dreams

Don't bargain for someone unfulfilled hopes

Let the waves carry away all of the halves in your mind

Let compassion feel the void

Still your heart

Let all the half-lies melt away

You are better than the best you know, nothing but the best
