Cool Water

where consciousness and dreams meet

magical place to explore

hiding in plain sight in shadows

realms of darkness in your soul

twisting, spinning, dancing aloft

dizzying spirals

riding the warm updrafts 

butterfly wings

molten lava, angry flames unleashed

hell-hound's fury just barely contained

waiting to spring

cool water, soul restoring

calming, soothing

you kissing me
