A Shadow Cast (view large)
soft sounds break away
like falling words that don’t relay
big steps with little time
is how you move and miss the signs
sunshine tries to heal the dark
it can’t hold onto what breaks apart
hearts that fill with broken love
could drown the chances, the only one
and I can’t feel it when it’s floating up there..
I can’t see you if you when you’re stuck in my head
and i can’t see
and i can’t breathe
your shadow follows…me
a universe inside your mind
the only one that would to redefine
somehow open this cage within
now close your eyes and count to ten
breathless now you’ve run so far
did you run back to the start
open dreams for you to see
a window open to what you need
and I can’t feel it when it’s floating up there..
I can’t see you if you when you’re stuck in my head
and i can’t see
and i can’t breathe
your shadow follows…me

Laurette Ruys
Michaellll,,, this is WOW. You have captured the beauty and majesty of these falls in a perfect composition. The light here really accenuates the whole scene. How soft and cold that water looks,, and then your song: my fave lines “a universe inside your mind” and “did you run back to the start”. this is a chilling combination with huge emotion and huge wow factor!! yep, shaking my head and dumbfounded by the beauty of your art, once again :-)
Michael Walters replied
Wow back for your fantastic comment Laurette, Yeah i loved that light that was there for only a short time and was happy to be standing where i was to get this, took a lot of really careful SLIPPERY rock hopping over flowing water to get to this spot, so was pretty happy with the result and glad you like it too, thank you also for liking the song, and those specific lines too:) Happy you like them both and means a lot your comment and fave :)
