Sail Boats

Sometimes the sway feels like marching

Marching like I’m dreaming

While sleeping with the wind

Upon a sailing, swaying sea.

 

These dreams carried me here

Fleets of souls past

Lost in my sail boats

 

These dreams become my home

Because the horizon is gone

And the sun is night,

The moon and stars my life, my love.

 

I may not know where I’m going

But I feel this forward rise and fall

And the march in my heart

Drums with a knowing beat, beat, beat.

 

Success swims beneath these bodies of water

The air stirs my hair and soul

Lifting me above unknowns

To a place, I’m taking myself, really slowly.
