Fragile

My vulnerable side


Oh, how beautiful it is to live!
To have a mind that thinks
A heart that beats
A soul that flourishes
And the strength of youth

What's the deal with being human?
Really, what is it?
To feel emotions
To let your inner self be touched
To cry once again

Some say tears can soothe the soul
Yes, tears, when you don't hold back
Like a river that flows as it pleases
Unstopped, unblocked
Undirected, but not without direction

Set free, unbound
Living the liberty
Walking in newness, afresh
Soaring, flying
I say this is being human

I'm grateful, inexpressible
Human language is but a limited tool
Can't say how thankful am I
For the smiling faces, the friendly gestures
The mark of love
