Woke Up Down


i woke up down

and the only thing that rose me was the sound

of water flowing underneath the ground


i heard a song

and the melody just coaxed me ‘write along’

a temptress recoiling that drew me on and on


like gravity

does something to the sea

like you move me


starlightlightlight

takes centuries to travel to our sight

in motion... in stillness

companion to the night

the afterlife
