I spin, flip
Effortlessly moving my body
Allowing the movements to flow through me
As if I am not of anything of this world
I lose my mind
Those painful, emotional probelms
Not all mine
All Blurring into the water dissolving them
Another flip, I am a child of the water
Wondering what it would be like
To live in my special haven
Peacefully alone
Becoming one with the body that captivates me
Finding myself content
With life
Coming to terms
With my problems
Washing away my former self
My new one beginning
As I surface
Inhaling my sweet life
Then submerging
For my deepest pleasure
