Blue jewels and crystal wings Dance upon the lake The surface like a soapy bubble And there is where I lay The world turns against the sky Passing flourished clouds My body grows heavy Yet I remain light Sinking through a gleaming gate Into the numbness of another world Sunbeams build a crystal cavern Fragments bright and sheen Ruby melts through a liquid tomb As cream swirls in hazelnut tea Gently sunk in sweet abyss My body rests in the lakebed
But I fall further Rising beneath the ground I lay my back upon the bubble As a breezy welcome chills my skin Wine has filled the heavens above Powdered with brown dust But the dragonfly still dances And the kindly Earth keeps turning So if I stay and watch the skies Time will bring the clouds again
