Be like Water

Be shapeless, formless

By Kaden FiskPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

She moves with ease

Elegant

yet simple

like the breeze

She trickles along

sometimes fast

Sometimes slow

one could never

control her flow

She continues to roam

As if no place ever felt

good enough

to be called her home

Still

she remains

never alone

For her rivers

run wide

Surrounded by

rocks and dirt

Don't you dare

mistake

her

for someone

who

doesn't know their worth

For her rivers

run deep

Full of abundance

many will seek

She is transparent

when she looks at me

For all I see

staring back

is a reflection

behind a mask

I wonder when I dive

into her infinite waters

Will I make a splash?
