Water of Life

Within me lies the ancient well of life
and in those sacred waters, you dwell
I feel you presence in my heart,
in my mind and in my soul.

I can feel you as you play within
those blessed walls
a kick here, a jab there
and every time, I smile.

This time is ours, yours and mine
but it cannot last forever.
Soon you will be forced from
the safety of your liquid filled cocoon.

Into the harsh light of this world
of hunger and thirst.
And both our worlds will change.
All too soon, I feel the well break.

It is time.
