SOMETHING WITHIN ME
There is something within me that matches the emptiness of the sky,
That wants to speak when something is inequitable
But due to people, is refrain by.
There is something within me that is inspired
by the alchemy of nature,
That wants to sway with trees
along with the cool passing breeze.
There is something within me that
matches the majestic ocean,
Furious, allure and relentless.
There is something within me that
Perceives the darkness of night,
That understands the alacrity of light.
Something within me blends with
the illusion of horizon,
The Sky and Earth never really meet
A beautiful confusion,
Paradigm of deceit.
Something within me is
spirited and free,
But I’m not where I should be.
