Walk on Water

Beneath the rolling clouds
Miles of mythical azure
Light swirling eddies of mist
Dancing upon it like graceful swans

Pulling my fingers through it
Could I feel the little drops of comfort
Moments so magical
Rare are they

Could I wish to walk on the water
Could I wish to dance on the water
Because so great it would be
Relishing every moment I would

A foot out
A hand out
To start my walk on the water I wish
Swathed in desire is my heart

But wouldn’t I sink
Piece of glass it is like
A song of fatality its fragility sings
Wouldn’t the water grab me beneath

But wouldn’t I float
A magical piece of carpet it is like
A tale of wonder it tells
Wouldn’t I hover on the water

Mind a no
Heavy am I for the water
That once I set foot on it
Submerged would I be

Heart a yes
That sometimes I never know
Light am I for the water
Only delight awaits

Wishing for the day
When my mind and heart would agree
But rarely do they
Why

Mind the logic
It tells a no
Walk on water
Impossible it is

Put a heart forward
It tells a yes
Walk on water
Burning with desire I am

Wishing for the day
When my mind and heart would agree
But rarely do they
At conflict always

Still standing on the jetty I am
Don’t know what to do
Sometimes it would be nice
To let the heart think

Putting the mind away
I would like to walk on water
I would like to dance on water
Wish me luck
