Human Desire
Fresh air in the balcony
Children playing around in the dust
Hide and seek, I guess
Like I used to play
When I was young
And then I dreamed of this day
But now what
I’m dreaming of those days
I used to dream of becoming someone
Now I am someone
But again I want to be someone better than me
I may at some point in my life
The best that I can be
But then what
Again I want to be the best?
Like they used to say
The rays of sun
They’ll never end
But someday they might end
And the only thing that will
Never end is, human desire.
