In the heart of the bustling crowd
Where voices merge, yet thoughts are loud
A single soul stands, distinct and bright
Amidst the shadows, seeking light
The world whispers, "Join the throng"
"Blend your notes into our song"
Yet the heart beats a different tune
A melody that seeks the moon
To walk alone, to carve your way
To find your truth, come what may
Yet in this quest, a gentle call
To heed the needs of one and all
Where lies the line, so thin, so fine
Between the self and the design
Of a world that asks for unity
Yet craves the spark of individuality
To care for self, to nurture dreams
To ride the waves of inner streams
Yet pause to see the wider view
To honor others, to be true
The dance of one and many sways
In intricate, harmonious ways
A balance struck, a path defined
Where self and others intertwine
To stand apart, yet not alone
To find your voice, yet share the tone
In this dance, the beauty lies
In the meeting of the earth and skies
For in the heart of every soul
Is a piece of the greater whole
A tapestry of lives entwined
Where self and others are aligned
So walk your path, with open eyes
And see the world through others' skies
For in this dance, we find our place
A harmony of time and space
In the end, the line is clear
To be yourself, yet hold others dear
To live a life that's truly free
Is to embrace both you and we
