Water Song
Water, the color of night,
so very still
not even a wave
breaks the glass surface.
Fear is sometimes
like this, submerged
so far it is hidden
from the conscious self,
safely buried
and unable to rise
to the top again.
Dark thoughts swim
against the current
of common sense, but
they meet no resistance
that far down.

And again, very interesting. We maybe at opposite end of the spectrum that you describe at that end. Fear has easily come to the surface, to be examine, understood and dispersed. I must never had any fear that needs to stay submerge. Against the currents of common sense I have had dreams and unorthodox projects which I did pursue – in other words who I really was won, not just common sense. It is interesting that I never even noticed this until I read your poem, so I thank you for a “shot of insight’ into myself …
