I am a semblance of water and land
Inescapable from both
I live in both
Both live undying in me.

There is a sun within me
We see it outside spreading its radiance of infinite hope.
My spirit rises unto thee
The water within flows through my eyes
The blue sky bends kissing my soul.
Words take a plunge I howl in pain
I take up my pen and write down
on the Ocean of Life that lives within me.
