Where do I end and you begin? The line in between is quite thin Who divided 'us' into 'you' and 'me' How different are he and she? Zero creations from me so far Can't attach my name to any star No flower blossoms because of me The sun always rises despite me Our world is made up of walls Every day humanity falls A creator I think I am It all looks a sham... Me, my home, the world to me Does it need a boundary, to be Do my edges shape me? Or without them I could still be? Taking the baton from the past The present just a moment does last It dashes to handover to tomorrow Missing it is my biggest sorrow Why should my walls define me Much beyond them I could be Will 'I' not still be here Scaling beyond them - death and despair We divide just to define Can't the process we refine We fragment rather than create Can we start with a fresh slate?
