I wish the moon would swallow me whole
So I can bathe in the illuminescence of her white belly
So I can float weightlessly amongst lotus and lily flowers
Surrounded by the sound of trickling water and a choir of frogs
That I may feel a cool breeze dampening my fiery heart
And silence pouring into the chaotic noise of my mind
In which I carry too much anger and pain
