Midst this quietness,
I play with anxiety,
I feel tired of this,
of these mediocre ways.
Why does my body,
has to have limits,
when my thoughts,
have never accepted any boundaries.
My desires gallop,
here and there, everywhere,
in all dimensions,
they don't stop to wonder,
if these dimensions can be real?
Why I can't be limitless?
Defying the gallows of logic.
Why can't I breach the horizon?
Why can't I be, limitless?
This mortality curse,
can this be undone?
That's the only way, you see.
For satiating, this,
this eternal curiosity.
This magnificent world we live in,
this colossal creation,
of delicately inter-wined propagation,
can this be understood?
I wish I could.
There are nights,
when I just lay down,
on that comforting grass,
looking up to the stars,
doubting the worth of living,
living with these bounds,
knowing that, you,
that you are only human.
For long I waited,
I watched them twinkle,
as if shying away,
from that bitter, bitter truth.
Even hiding beyond those clouds,
those dark opaque clouds.
But one fine day,
at the point of my desperation,
just when I thought,
that I would yield,
I saw a bright light,
illuminating, rejuvenating light.
There weren't any words,
but I clearly heard them.
"You thought you could never fly,
but you did.
You thought you could never heal,
but you did.
You thought you would never reach the moon,
but you did, you did.
I didn't create limits,
you did, you did!"
Was the answer,
always this simple?
I wonder.
Alas, I do see it,
we create them,
by doubting ourselves.
Take a leap of faith,
to the unknown and the unexplored.
Raise a toast,
to the undying human spirit,
to this quest we pursue,
and above all, to possibilities.
Be limitless.
