The Water

As I look into the vacant today
As I search for the unoccupied
As I wait, lest the unfilled appears
The water flows by.

The mist gets thicker
My head feels heavier
And delusions appear
The water flows by.

Some write about blood
Some write about love
Some don’t write
The water flows by

The vultures stare at me
I stare back
The church bells ring
The water flows by.

Don’t close your eyes
Look at me and come closer
The shutters come down
The water flows by

I hear an opus symphony
Touching my empathy and heart
Moving in peace in the mind’s cart
The water flows by.

The water does not flow by anymore
Well, it must have found other shores
I wait for the incredible to happen
And invite the sea to beckon

Let the day not end
Let my flowing outfit stop the day
Running after the light, I gaze…
The shadow doesn’t touch me.
