The Water

This time
So cruel
So beautiful

Becomes
The wave
That unifies
The sea
The ocean

Is one
With the finite
Is one
With the infinite
Is one

A boat
Sets sail
Upon
The water

To find
The soul
That unifies
The sea
The ocean

Divides
What is unified
Unites
The divided

I feel the water
Washing over
The side

I feel the water

I am captured
Riding out
With the tide

Do I float
Or do I capsize

This love
So cruel
So beautiful

I saw
The sea
And thought
To taste
The salt

The water

Will drown
What was born to it
And resurrect
The naked

I feel the
Water
Washing over
The side

I feel the water

The rocks
My hands

Are bleeding
The water

The sand
That should be
Comforting

The shore
That should be
Nurturing

Is fear

Is stone

The sand
That should be
Comforting

The shore
That should be
Nurturing

Is fear

Is stone

Is pain
