Dreams spoken through

out there by the sea
I never felt alone
Who was watching over me?

- - - - - - - - - - -

I emerged from a hazy path
was handed luggage and told
oh don't forget this, miss

walking along suddenly realized
where were my clothes?
fading it seems. .

      [how vulnerable I became, more plain
       reduced to my essence
      could not change it and pressed on instead]

the small crowd dispersed
onward along the shore
I seemed to be empty-handed
except for this little fist

my clenched hand feared the water
as I walked on the aquamarine
don't know how I got so far
into the blue-green

walking on glass it seemed
perhaps crystal clear rock
reaching a transparent podium
facing the deep blue

       [My heart shows it's purity in a dream
       I walked on water to reach you
       God-given hope, I reached the destination]

I have this here I asked
could you do what you will with it please
I've traveled this far road and I
fear for it's fragility

      [forgotten wrongs,
      innocently
      found something within that would not crumble]

place it here ma'am
this is the last time you'll see
now our sculpture seems complete

     out there by the sea
     I never felt alone
     Who was watching over me?

- for a moment your face was clearly seen

it seems a miracle just happened
oblivious little me
now there's nothing left but
a crystal platform bordering the coral reef

thought something should feel missing
reaching you, it is all total

Release . . . . . . .

I do not know who would believe
the story of you and me
now the magic's gone
but at least I set your soul free
or was it me?
