i want to be....

i want to be

that first tear of joy 

that trickles down your warm cheek

want to be 

that moment when a bud blooms

and releases 

the most intoxicating fragrance

want to be

that minor note 

you sustain for ten seconds

giving goosebumps

the wave that almost reached your toes

before being called back to sea

i want to be

the sand

that finds it's way out

of your tight fist

between your fingers

i want to be 

that moment

when dark clouds split

and a single ray from the sun

shines through

want to be

that scream

you let out on a

high rise building

want to be

a roll of ribbon

that opens out

and trails off...

want to be

that moment when

i pull the beads off a string

and let them fly everywhere

i crave to be released

i want to be free

let me go...

i want to be

a free spirit.
