Dhae's devilish distractions

My shoes are too tiny,
and my heart is too great.
I cannot walk
But I cannot wait.

My will is my strength,
But my will is too weak.
A noble quest,
Is what I still seek.

I walk on the river,
And crawl on dry land.
My pulse is a rather
arrhythmic band.

The truth is I'm neither,
Fair, fond or free.
The truth is I'd rather,
Have lived as a tree.

... or  maybe not.
