Analysis of That heart dreams




 We can take nothing material
Neither money nor power
 From this world
Even though we bargain and fight
Like a dog and fox
Up our ego like horse
Belittle others by force
Body that aspires many things
Mind asks many reasons
To justify for self being selfish
Heart only waits for a smile and
A Hug from a dear friend
To flow like a river
To stretch like a music
To fly like a bird from dark to light
