Would that, I Wouldn't be,
What I am.
A tiny creature, a form I desire,
Unnoticed, Unknown
An oyster in a shell,
deep in the sea,
Eternal peace, away from abyss
Would that I wouldn't be,
What I am,
A little child, a form I desire,
Careless, Reckless,
Would laugh out loud,
Innocent desires.
To be cared, to be loved,
Some things I aspire.
Would that I wouldn't be,
What I am,
An elderly person, a form I desire,
At peace, No worldly desire.
Seen my time, Lived enough,
Seen enough, understood the play.
A last breath to come, the flickering fire.
I wish to be, All the things,
Would that life would be,
a living dream.
