I am a waterfall.
I flow freely yet am channeled.
I take life from the banks of canals,
But I give life to creatures of earth and air.
My song is peaceful though none would hear.
My water is sometimes cool and clear,
Yet still, at other times, murky and brown.
I sometimes trickle like a sweet stream,
I sometimes crash like a sea storm.
I am alone, yet surrounded.
I am strong when I am falling; I am weak when I am healing.
The water is me, but am I really water?
My questions stand still and unheard in the buzzing air.
People talk with me, hurt me, care for me,
Lose me, need me, hate me,
Love me, ignore me, stick with me…
But do they know me?
Do I know me?
My thoughts rush away again on another wave.
I am a waterfall.
I flow freely yet am channeled.
I take life from the banks of canals,
But I give life to creatures of earth and air.

I sometimes crash like a sea storm.
