All we ever want is within
a cloud of intent;
why be disillusioned
by a failed
Endeavour
made her scared of leisure;
Trying to sing without breathing won't create a sound
and brightness lives under the ground
Highs and wine to reach the divine;
Sinning blindly to create a heaven on the earth;
It's just your mind that's giving birth
An ogre can live in a fortress;
Dirt is necessary to grow all the things we eat;
it's not just the sun raising seeds;
you'll find the beauty in all things
Water doesn't decide its form,
and inside a cocoon,
the image of a butterfly can't live inside
The mind
tries to conceive
the vastness of the sea
