Summer breeze howling in my ear
The North Wind whispering to my soul
And the gentle gust hushing the drumbeats within:
It’s the restlessness of my being
Acting reckless
Fighting the chains of fate – 
Bounded to nothing
I walk, far into the depths
Of my imagination,
I cross the sea of Emotion
I climb the mountains of Thought
Pledging to free myself
From the sorrow of expectations – 
Set by others,
Defined by the World.
