Over, Under, Through

Over me is the sky

As I just muddle by

On my own.

My lips shut and sewn,

then realizing that so much

has been lost & reach out & touch

the sky

with tears I cry,

and I begin to fully try

to live to the fullest of a breath

and try not to regret with a sigh

my social self's death.



Under me a ground of soil and sand

that man tries to command.

But nature just laughs as we pass,

keeping us under the sky-glass.

Ah, I love you, the ground,

as I pass by, I breathe deep,

From end of the seas' sound,

While you, ground, go into beautious Winter sleep.



Through me whishes nature's breath of love,

with the clear and cloudy sky above,

the ground of abundance and life,

healer of pains and strife,

Through nature I really live life.
