Look beneath me, what do you see
A ripple far into the deep
And cast a light over me
To understand what I see
Listen to me, my life’s song
Many days you’d sing along
And watch me flutter away
And come back each following day
Love me with your counterpart
And understand my quick darts
Away from that which hurts me
And thrives which one deserves me
Long for me and want me now
Hold me close and lay me down
Caress me with your touch
and kiss the bud of love grown much
Open me to experience a new
Apart from the daily dread of you
And plunge into my folds
For a new world, you will behold
Move me with your wind
Swaying back and forth again
To pull me and draw me in
To your sweet melodies again and again
