Swift as The Wind

I am swift as the wind and as curious as a cat

I wonder what it would be like to be as insignificant as a gnat

I hear the roaring of the ocean

I see the world in slow motion

I am swift as the wind and as curious as a cat

I pretend I have a heart of gold

I feel as though it’s a bit more dull

I touch as if the world will unfold

I worry about the future and all the years to come

I cry when everything will be said and done

I am as swift as the wind and as curious as a cat

I understand that everything built must fall apart

I say that one can achieve anything with enough heart

I dream of a world without hunger and pain

I try my best to achieve fame

I hope my fears one day will be overcome and that I will never become undone

No matter what happens it does not matter what I am

But what I will become
