The trees wanted to be still,
But the breeze rustled their leaves;
The grass wished to stand tall,
But the wind forced it to bend-
The heart wanted to love,
Yet, the mind feared it all.
The soul craved to be understood,
But the world conspired against the truth;
The waves would’ve liked to reach the moon,
Alas! The distance was insurmountable-
And I wished to conquer the universe,
Yet, couldn’t even make a single real connection.
