Ripple

As long as I may try
To seek what has become
A faded tyranny
A soft whispering cry

Who knew as I lay inside the body
Who knew as I lay inside myself
Who knew as I lay inside the body
Who knew as I lay inside myself

As long as the tears dry
They peel off my vision
So I can clearly see
The flood as my fear dies

Who knew as I lay inside the body
Who knew as I lay inside myself
Who knew as I lay inside the body
Who knew as I lay inside my
Self

Sunken skies
Dormant lies
Motion by
My divide

All that I touch
Transposes form
In silent rippling flow

Solely under
This dream
This illusion is
Submerging
Flowing alluvial tide
Slows the refraction of light

Hold me under
This dream
Disillusion
Drowning me
Hold the reflection of my
Soul deep ineffable light
