Baptized
Standing beneath a blanket of stars Naked Vulnerable Exposed The shower rains down on me Baptized by the water Serenaded by the wind There’s magic in the desert Beauty in the darkness A comfort in the night Never felt more alive As the last evidence of you Swirls down the drain It’s fulfilling Watching it disappear Guess I had to come all the way out here To rid myself of you Sacred freedom Creating a path for what shall be From the rubble of what was I stand beneath this cascade A relic and rising star at once Coexisting
