The water sways beneath our feet
The boats and wind to guide it
In following an unexplainable course
With no source or direction to be seen

The water sways beneath our feet
Our words and minds to guide it
In following an unexplainable course
With no source or direction to be seen

The lack of understanding is the beauty
And only that is understood
Feelings felt from miles away
Beneath our feet as water sways

Your eyes glow an easy brown
And save me from impending frown
The thought to say goodbye so long
Ties my throat in tricky knots

A happiness as sad could be
Swells my mind so viciously
Feelings light as feathers
Matched by those of bricks

Each touch so easy
Each thought so hard
To miss and long for our embrace
Shown now in lines upon my face

In easy eyes I know reflect
Each feeling felt on either end
I don't need to say and neither do you
Each brick and feather shared between two
