What do you see?
What do you see when you look at the sky?
Do you stare at the birds and how high they fly?
Can you even tell what meets my eye
And how my mind starts to wonder ‘why’?
Why are we bound to earth when up there
The birds’ feathers flap in clear air?
Why do we have all troubles to bare
And why is there never someone to care?
What do you see when you look at that cloud?
Do you think it is only a part of a crowd?
Can you even get what makes me so proud
And so eager to shout this out loud:
Every cloud looks so lone, so unique
Traveled alone to that far away peak
Having its stories, awaiting to speak
With that form of its, so new, so mystique.
What do you see when you look at the stars?
Do you feel like you’re reaching up to the bars?
Can you even shake the feeling our scars
Are just as visible as the figure of Mars?
Each time we smile, each time we grin,
Something in us reminds of our sin
As if it’s talking, it says where we’ve been
And makes it so clear it’s not our win.
What do you see when you look to the moon?
Do you feel like watching it until noon?
Can you even stand the fact that soon
You too will be enchanted by its tune?
Don’t you see its sincere smile
Beaming down at you for the longest while
Making you regret all looks hostile
And bump your worries in an useless pile?
