One day I will plant a seedThat seed will sprout into a treeTogether that tree and me will spend an almost eternityYears rolling by: one thousand, two thousand, threeAnd then that tree will dieBefore me
Frozen in motion, we wait stillDreaming of freedom,In dreams we are living stillWaiting on hopesWaiting on promisesWe are here stillI yearn for a touchOutside of this reality stillIn the wake of emotionsHolding it in stillA view from the outsideImprisoned stillJump at the chanceJump at your callAnd stillLeft half emptyI’ll settle for half fullAnd stillEncumbered by doubtWas I ever livingA true…
