When I was cold,
my surface was so predictable.
An icy land allowed me
to be alone, distant, safe.
One day, the sun came,
and changed my frame.
The warm wind melted everything.
I became defenseless saltwater.
Untamed tears,
chanting my past lives
hidden in the drops
of who I was
and what I longed to mean.
With time, the calm waters
turned clear and soothing.
The particles of light shimmered silently
in the fractured space,
being so gentle, like a healing touch
lost in the dark past.
Now, when a strong wind blows again,
I'm so afraid of my untamed waters.
I don’t want to hurt,
I don’t want to be hurt.
Without shape, without frame,
I’m so strong and fragile
in perfect duality,
like a fierce ocean seen in fulfilled light.
I hear this endless symphony
calling me to the definitive solution.

I don’t want to hurt,
I don’t want to be hurt.
Without shape, without frame,
I’m so strong and fragile

like a fierce ocean seen in fulfilled light.
I hear this endless symphony
calling me to the definitive solution.
