Why should I be
like the ocean waves
which rise and rise
to fall again?
For no matter how high
it rises,
gravity seems
to always pull it aback.
It has risen to fall
for years of lots,
but yet its waves
will tarry not.
But sayest me this to thee
in the nearest future
its waves shall rise
to fall,
and fall it shall
to rise no more...
