Gravity

“Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live”
--Norman cousin

Behind your finger hides your great fixation
You can’t escape by attempting levitation
Even if you defeated pain, that solemn feeling,
It’s arrogant to think you’ll win your weight!

Stand on the air, but with no wings to fly
Mental deception, you don’t even try
Sky’s not for everyone, limit’s too high
You won’t believe,
You’re not immortal, you’ll die!

“Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for god the energies of love, and then, for a second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire.”
--Teilhard de chardin

Conceive at last the fact you’re not the hunter
Surrender to the force that drags you under
If you ever upraise the crave, reality will…
…Will hold your lovely feet down to the ground!
