In a world where we all have learnt to compromise,

Where all our moments are accentuated by sighs,

Where so much is said and so much heard,

In the search for clarity where everything is blurred,

Where we have accepted that dreams must be clipped,

Emotions must be hidden and we must live tight lipped,

Of all those matters and so much more,

I hope someday we may grow wings and above them we soar,

When we may be as free as the soft threads of moonlight,

That sparkle even more in the darkness of the night…
