life/death:swell/burst

[simpatica]

he comes to me
asking me to believe some dream
touches my face so damn softly
and i smile so i don't scream
yeah sometimes i sigh, or yawn
but he won't move on
he knows my capacity
likes to see me filled to the brim
see the top teeter and lift
watch it float, drift
at peace with swells

oh lover, touching me so damn softly
reminiscent of dreams i used to believe
that set me up for a fresh new scene
then keep me afloat on the same stale sea
here i'll wait for the swell
that'll push me out of this cell
out of brims and tops and peace
wait for a time when i'm at ease...
when the world can finally let go and breathe
for once aware we were all one first
when the sea will swell and swell
and finally
burst
