What I Want

Surucipe

I yearn to be a whole being,

Strength to be found in every section.

An array of arrows to my quiver,

And a spherical perception.

 

I want to fathom why all caged birds sing,

And understand their woe.

Only then can I aid and offer ease,

Because of their struggle I'll know.

 

To deliver sound that's marked as fine,

Through simply keys and string.

Compelling music can lift the lowest,

So may the ones with little meet everything.

 

I wish to speak to many peoples,

A difference in mother tongues no matter.

To divulge in culture and more wild ordeals,

Prove life paints an ever-changing pattern.

 

To reach all cusps of planet Earth,

Emerged in the science of different faces.

Devour the colours of our planet,

Sample all flavours from all places.

 

But most I'd love to be content,

Content until forever is no more.

For She to join me in my quest,

Only then can I cease knowing I soared.

    This poem is simply amazing, S.!
    Read it a few times. The last stanza is so good, it could stand on its own. You are an incredible writer.
