A feeling of floating, amidst the clouds
Far, far away from the raucous crowds
Letting it lull me, into a sense of calm
The still of the water, tis my only balm
Mirrored reflections, a light in the dark
A journey unto myself, on this, I embark
And though my soul continues to seek
I realize, I am still one, among the meek
My heart, skips a beat, it longs ever more
For a way to stay, away from the shore
As I watch the day, up above me, shrink
It is then I realize that the sun also sinks
Beyond the horizon, she whispers goodbye
A wave of my hand, and a tear, from my eye
Awaiting the moment, she returns, ever bright
Lighting the heavens, and chasing the night
