Dancing Waters
On dancing waters I saw wet dreams
on dancing waters I was born to believe
on dancing waters I lived but could not breathe
on dancing waters I learned but did not know a single thing
on dancing waters I sold my very being
on dancing waters I thought, one day I shall swim free
on dancing waters I die as my heart bleeds
and my dancing waters so beautifully seen do not gleam
dancing waters now motionless removing all dreams
hope in dancing waters I still try to pray for them
but the dance ended with me
only to begin anew all over again
