How do I?

HOW DO I? How do I tell the sun that I am burning in the moonlight? How do I tell the darkness that I am afraid in the light? How do I tell the ocean that I am drowning in the land? How do I tell the thunder that I am deafened in the silence? How do I tell the fire that I am burning in the water? How do I tell the night that I am lost in the day? How do I tell the stars that I can’t count my fingers? How do I tell the monsters that I am terrified by the angels? How do I tell death that I’m lifeless despite this beating heart? And how do I tell myself that I’m still a kid who’s seeking for peace and love that doesn’t tear apart?
