A beautiful escape from this madness…
Switch me off
And let me drift
Into the river
Let me float
Away so far away
Face turned to heaven
Watching the changing sky
Motion following motion
The water soothing
My aching head
The current and I
Become one
No longer visible
To the outside world
I drown in bliss
And then bloom in
The life of the river
Obstacles are meaningless
I flow around each one
Nothing stops me
My destination is
Always in sight
A movement
And I ripple out
Without end
Without boundary
An ocean of living
Awaits me
A sea of loving
Lies before me
I have become water.
