WATER LILY

The calm of noon breathes through me

forming lulls of lyrics down my back

There is no right place in this world

yet we search for its beauty to unfold

Like a plucked blossom in the palm of my hand-

its simplistic art too will fade

losing its nectar

as its surroundings absorb its light

So why do we tread and trip toward our end

The sun will set and rise again

in between we're just living in a state of silence

where images weave in and out

planting seeds in our minds

merely to keep us alive

All I know

is that the sun in bright and I live for the night

but my voice will not be heard

I'm drowning here.
