I was born
Ending someone's
Chances in life
Learned to stand
And looked afar
Then I grew
Big and tall
To reach the skies
I aimed so high
Only to fall
After I crouched
Caused by my own
Futile fantasia.
Fragile spine
Stretched inclined
Realized that I
Walk to die,
Look afar
To reach by eye
Not to claim
That I am high
'cause I grow
To reach my
Highest potential
Not to touch
The untouchable sky.
So I grow
Big and tall
Reach my goal
To be my all
Now remove
My glance
From that big
Blue sky
And realize that
I was born
And doomed to die.
Still I smile
A foot to my grave
Hugging my flashes
Of euphoria in my head
Without knowing
That from the day
I was born
It was a slow decay
From then on
'Till I close my eyes
And be the reason
Why someone was born.
