Aquatic

It's time to find a clearing

To wrestle in the dark

The maze among lights

See the nodes that emerge in the face

It's time to quit the race

To carry nothing forward

For we owe it to ourselves

To bury yesterday, leave it quaking in the earth

If we don't know what we're speaking

And we are not who we've been

There's a chance we're only waking

From a dream of the God in our breast

How will we be in that waking?

How will we be in the womb?

We may all begin aquatic

But we leave only dust from our bones

You won't find me where I fall

You won't find me where I fall

We may all begin aquatic

But we leave through the fire for our homes
