Steady Streams and Rushing Rapids

I was traveling between two poles of truth

On the right end I swam through love 

A slow under water dance that never felt like drowning

The water would fizzle over my skin in light tickles 

The laughs that fell off my tongue pounded the surface in bursts

As sweet as it was I worried where was the challenge?

Didn't I need something to chase?

I had always had a predator's eye after all

The left end felt different in every single way

I would lift to the surface peeking my eyes above where I no longer could breath

Curiosity pushed my lungs to quiet so my eyes may feast

Next I would dive so deep the darkness kept me from recognizing my own fingertips

The fear kept me intoxicated

I  was in constant chase

Running from the unseen 

Chasing unasked answers

These waters made me wonder how resting felt

Author's Note

Which waters would you choose?

Paige,

You write in a way where it's impossible for me to not feel so many different emotions. You write how I write and I love that.

"I always had a predictors eye after all"

The devilish grin this created...so, so good!
