I wanted to be a star <br /> but skies couldn't hold me <br /> I tried to be a melodic symphony <br /> but hard to compose me <br /> then i tried to be a smile <br /> but sorrow just failed me..... <br /> then i wanted to be beauty <br /> but arrogance veiled me..... <br /> then i tried to be victory <br /> but stumbled before i could leap......' <br /> Oh how i wished to be freedom <br /> but was surrounded by walls and heaps... <br /> so i just became a human being <br /> because i so well know what pain means........<br /><br />daffodil tears<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/just-a-human-being/
