As a positive message piece or as a conversation about the effects of dreams and dreaming as an escape, this works well. The structure is sound, the pace is good.
The first and last stanzas contain some depth as far as word usage and developement of the theme. I did think the third and fourth stanzas could be expanded, both to maintain the line count set in the first and last two stanzas, as well to extend the emotional idealism of the work.
Its a personal opinion, I try to make sure of in my own work, and I hope you do not see this as an expectation for you to change your process, but I do believe this piece would not have suffered if you had chosen use synonyms of the words, marks, world, and blooming, rather than repeating them. Certainly I accept that as a lyrical effect, the repeating of a line or term can be used to communicate strong contextual meaning, if of course its purposeful.
There is an interesting flow of imagery that dances with the larger theme of your poem.

Nice poem.
Dreams often show us what we're either afraid or incapable of seeing or being in waking life, a kind of plaything of the subconscious where even morality is sacraficed.
