Whether physical or personal,
Boundaries change every day.
Life is in constant motion;
Sometimes they shatter, sometimes they expand.
The borders of every nation
Are marked upon the globe.
Yet through wars and conflicts,
We redraw and reshape those very lines.
There is but one beloved Earth,
The home we all share.
Yet along every line of control,
Soldiers must stand guard day and night.
Nature has already divided
The land, forests, rivers, and mountains.
Still, to suit our own desires,
We divide, quarrel, and shed blood.
Whether it is a home, a courtyard,
A field or a farm,
We keep shifting boundaries
Forward and backward,
Using all our cunning
To seize another’s land.
Places where we once walked freely
Have now become forbidden.
Why has bitterness entered our relationships?
Why has misunderstanding spread so far?
Like a stone cast into a still lake,
Ripples rise and spread in widening circles.
Turning round and round,
They travel farther and farther away.
Human relationships are much the same;
Their circles keep changing.
Those who were our own yesterday
Today seem like strangers.
Moment by moment, time slips away;
Day by day, the world keeps changing.
Breaking and remaking every boundary,
Humanity moves forward with immeasurable speed.
