INTO THE ESSENSE

I'm caught again in this tide
After I heard a tone
floating
it's much lighter than water
it's air
floating
it's much lighter than air
it's space
floating

Not as much stars as I remember
Am I still home
I am a tremendous being
I can reach anywhere
I can see why some would confuse it
with Godly powers and feelings
I can take in so many universes in my heart
Overfilled
I scream them out
floating

This pull, I can't escape it
I want it and need it
I starved in my waiting
I feel I belong here but I must leave it
floating

The morning will come and I'll wake up in my dear home of mud
I will see the faces, hear the words
and again feel alienated 
I belong, but I know
I've such little time, before I leave it
My nature is of this ground
But it makes me forget the whole of my being
A few moments to quench that deep yearning
floating

I feel as big as the universe
But for now, I'll have to fit
in this little beating
All drained, it's safe
grateful, for all of those feelings
