"Dreamt of Murky Waters"
I have this dream
In which I am a wanderer
Dark streams,
Of murky water
Washing over
No moon, nor stars
Do force any boundary
Eaten completely
Pitch Black, Empty
The sky above
No means by which
To measure this
The endlessness of time
Here is only the cold
Only the unforgiving
Currents flowing
Life’s murky waters
Endless, forever, pouring
Out of control
Constantly pulling
My head slips under
Tired of fighting
I learn to let go
Sinking beneath ever more
Towards darkness
Inescapable abyss
To unknowns below
Into the resting place
To life’s secret
The true meaning of it all
Letting go, I give myself
I am welcomed back home
