Waterfall

When I saw you,
The world was crushing down
On you,
Like waves pulled from the sea,
Deep skies all around you,
Like restless dreams
In endless nights

Of gleams.

I walked
With steps of falling leaves,
And covered my heart
With a garland of rain.
You smiled
With waving soul,

And absent words,
Sitting under a rushing waterfall

Not knowing
That the river was me.
