True To Myself

And amidst the divine nature
Melodies sneak among all creatures,
Melodies that strings cannot play

Amidst the divine nature
Words in mind keep reiterating,
Words that lips cannot say

Your life is compressed
Yet your freedom unlimited,
And you just live the day

You live the moment
You take a step,
Though deep inside you crave to stay

Unknown remains tomorrow
As the fear of the unknown grows,
And you drown in dismay

Some want to fly
Others fear the sky
What is fear anyway?
