Let me be reborn

Wed, 05/07/2014 - 19:17 -- piapage

"let me be reborn as a cloud, or a tree, something that is soft and ever giving to life. let me be reformed to a whisper or a breeze, so light and fulfilling. never let my feet tread on the ground heavy and foreboding, never let my heart make the sound of a creaking or a cracking. let me be the water of the earth, or the ground that holds its mirth and stature. let not me be this beast, so selfish and confused. monsters among monsters, we feed, breed and destroy. our happiness so fleeting, our disasters so abiding. let me be a cover, a protection so profound. oh please let me be something better than I am now"
