Utopia

Sometimes we need the riverbanks to break

                To know how tame the river has been

                                As wild floods sing her vindication

Sometimes the change we seek and get

                Becomes a chain of tears and regret

A scar on our flawless perfection

We sit on the fence of our minds

                Never loving what we have

                                Yet not willing to let go

We dance like masters of times

                At stark realities we laugh

With hearts full of ego

Sometimes we feel we need a break

                When dark clouds besiege our hearts

Yet we drown in vague glee

Sometimes we do not know that bliss

                Is the peace rolled up in our sleeves

                                Not the heaven our dreams see.
