reflections of water
shadow ripples
they draw you in
make you want to leap in
find a portal
for something to change
whether that's fundamentally
or you just rest from the weight of all this
but I've not leapt
nor do I rest tonight
because stars stretch on the sea
darkness swallows
and I need to witness what I can
every swirl of a cloud important
a treasure map I can't take my eyes off
somewhere the sun comes up
I should navigate there
but I close my eyes
open them
and find again the night
speckled with beauty
but devoid of landmarks
I should declare myself lost
oh to meander in that idea of rescue
save me from the night
I lost my way
