Piece IV: Tired

-

I want to live, I thought.

I want to run free, but I can't. I have tried.
I want to explore, but I can't. I have tried.
I want to climb mountains, but I can't. I have tried.
I want to swim to the depths of the earth, but I can't. I have tried.
I want to experience memories in a foreign country, but I can't. I have tried.
I want to be happy, but I can't. I have tried.
Wait - let me wish for something simpler.
I want to keep on rowing, but I can't. I have tried and I am tired.
I want to feel, but I can't. I have tried and I am tired.
I want to breathe, but I can't. I have tried and I am tired.
I want to live, but I can't. I have tired and I am tired.
..
...
So
....
.....
I want to lie numb, but I can't
I have tried. I am tired.

Now that I have grown older I understand that perhaps some things only make sense after sufficient time has passed by. Time passing by is both bitter and sweet. Bitter because you slowly start to realize that parts of you will be left behind in the past, they wont move forward with you into the future.  Sweet because this very nature of life reminds you of how temporary this world is and keeps you from getting too attached.  In this vary vast canvas of time, I too leave behind a splash of my soul for my eyes to read IA from peaceful gardens of heaven one day.
