The Water will Flow

If the water wants to flow, it will flow

Whether through mountains or wet eyes, it will flow

It will flow and it will merge into rivers, into oceans

When it merges, it will flow into a graceful massacre

It will flow in the speed of orcans and destroy what it pleases

The drowning flow that turns drought to earth, earth to life

For where life is supposed to be lived, the water will flow

Where tears are supposed to be felt, the water will flow

It will always flow as passionate in the Amazon as on my cheek

And the flowing water in the oceans will always taste as salty as a tear

If the water wants to flow, it will flow within us

And if we want to flow with it, the water will carry us
