Grasses Unseen

The lazy river drifts on by
Its waters deep deep green
Running shallow lazily
In search of grasses unseen

No star far enough to satisfy
A hungry soul in search.
Ocean's depths can't hold the restless.
A lonesome desire for mirth

Pacing back and forth between
Microscope, seas, and stars.
The hyper human examines; 
Feeling trapped behind bars

Sara thanks for comments, it was personal and now thanks to Hormone therapy and Radiotherapy 8 years have flown.
