baptism

it's time i jump in to the water
take that leap of faith
nestle down in to the bottom
and ease me
to sleep
Free Liquid from an ocean of thought
in hopes that i would drown

Now my body, weak and lifeless
washes to the shore
a morning dove brings a
birth of love
an awakening to free
the dove brought peace to me
it was a vessel of a unity

But it never asked for anything, just to come back when i fall
to bring me something that i need:
a thought
a prayer
a song

Return me now to the point of the jump
The fear i felt i feel no more
The veil of past is gone

Find myself atop the mountain
along a sunlit cloud
to watch as gifts fall through the air
to be caught by
messenger dove

the dove brought peace to me
a vessel of a unity
