I can see the lake,
its clear blue surface,
is there for just our sake,
Your touch on my skin makes me nervous,
I stand at the feel of your hand
The boat we are in shakes,
as my body and heart all of a sudden stand.

You pretend not to notice,
my fragile interior,
Instead you look to the water,
watch the beautiful lotus.

It stands on the water,
alone and daunting,
like us before we met,
it is but one single plant,
alone, with nothing else around it,
but the cold and unnerving water.

I move closer to you,
my heart beating quickly,
I make my move,
these months I have spent in wait and preparation,
all this time working hard for one moment,
but its alright,
Because I would fight any fight,
if it was to remain in your heart's sight.
