I enter into the world like a spinning leaf
You feel me, you sense me, I require no belief


I am the wind blowing through the trees
I am the laughter spilling forth with ease
I am the heartbreak that brings you to your knees
I am the sweet, salty call to the seas


I am the power in your hands
I am the weight of life’s demands
I am the shifting, spilling sands
I am the falling star that never lands

I know not what it takes for endless thirst to slake
Forever hungry for another bite to take
Yet, if you can find the means for meaning to make
You may one day find yourself awake
