boundaries

i catch a flight once in a while
and every time I look out
there are no boundaries there
there is either land or sea
an infinite expanse for us
waiting with open arms
but at the moment we land
we see boundaries here
people divided by land
but united by air and water

what if man had choice
even this air would be split
how do you get to breathe
when you are in my air
how did my air infringe
into the area of your air
like we have split rivers
seas, oceans and water
if only we could split
we would have marked
spaces even on sun

A man divides and then
heart unites against all odds
love transcends all boundaries
all languages spoken by man
for Love has its own language
unheard by many in this world
but heard only by those in love
you and I love, we are different
having different languages
different ways to our gods
but still we can have same love

Its sad that we have to be
always on these very pieces
where boundaries are visible
and we cannot walk past
its sad that we cannot be
living up on the clouds
where no one can yet see
any divisions on this land
any divisions on this sea
one wave after another
lashing my heart, love
