The feeling I am feeling
Is like being suspended in water
Floating up
While being pulled down
Time has stopped
And I open my eyes
To see a bright sky
But clouds roll in
And a breeze makes me shiver
My fingers are numb
As children swim about
And people wade in life
And I am suspended
In a state of simple being
With the sky above
And water beneath
