Someday!

Someday I want to climb high

High up the mountains,

That seem to touch the sky.

Be a part of a range, so large,

That I'll finally understand, how tiny I am.

In a small tent I'll stay

Where people won't tell me,

What I should wear

And how I should behave.

They won't care for my qualifications

All they'll want to see, is a smile on my face.

I'll forget about the frivolities

And focus only on

What really matters to me.

The people here, are living at an altitude,

That's higher than the height,

Of the clouds, floating in the sky.

Here, possessions don't matter,

Because the sole focus is happiness

And being satisfied with what you have.

For millennia, enlightened men

Have made the mountains their abode.

Here they look, for the answers,

That plague us humans, our entire lives.

In the world we live in

We keep looking at other men

But up there, in the skies.

You look at the grandeur of nature

And because there's so little human activity

Your focus shifts to your own body and mind.

Someday I wish to leave

Everything I own, behind.

Be by myself,

And find peace inside.
