The water floats over my body
as if it were a cloud
coming to wash away my nightmares.
The lyrics slam into my soul
as if they had been born from within myself.
The calm takes me over
as I lay,
longing for peace-
for happiness.

The water floats over my body
as if it were a cloud
coming to wash away my nightmares.
The lyrics slam into my soul
as if they had been born from within myself.
The calm takes me over
as I lay,
longing for peace-
for happiness.
Let the peace wash over you…
That opening image is so powerful and surprising: “The water floats over my body/ as if it were a cloud”. It sets up the rest of the poem beautifully.
I love this. I feel like I can relate. Beautiful.
