I feel a restless urge I cannot fight But must make peace with I feel a yearning in my soul Does anyone hear my voice? It is an arrow shot into the dark, A museum label Failing to describe the exhibit It is a sunrise behind glass. I want it to be freed I do not have the tools to free it. The words I speak Aren't enough. I need a sound, a touch, a taste And more to express even an inkling Of all I think, and therefore all I am Do you feel the meaning? I fear it will never dawn in your eyes. I fear the light is only dim in mine.

yearning (the weakness of words)
I feel a restless urge I cannot fight But must make peace with I feel a yearning in my soul Does anyone hear my voice? It is an arrow shot into the dark, A museum label Failing to describe the exhibit It is a sunrise behind glass. I want it to be freed I do not have the tools to free it. The words I speak Aren't enough. I need a sound, a touch, a taste And more to express even an inkling Of all I think, and therefore all I am Do you feel the meaning? I fear it will never dawn in your eyes. I fear the light is only dim in mine.
