Moving By

Michael Walters

Moving By

stand there in the shadow of a whispers dream
hoping to feel a brush of your wishes floating down
there’s something in this air that chills the way you feel
now I’m running into you but the colours aren’t feeling true
so I’m stuck inside old dreams

we can’t breathe a word
that would make this fall apart
there’s nothing in your mind
that trickles into your heat
and the silence still remains
like when the rain has struck the ground
the miracle you tried to find
was hoping to stay lost

I swept the world for signs to prove they were not there
they followed you till dawn then fell straight off the earth
so keep me safe today, windows and worlds locked away
I’m trying not to hide as the years moved into the night
where your stuck inside old dreams

we can’t breathe a word
that would make you fall apart
there’s nothing in your mind
that trickles into your heat
and the silence still remains
like when the rain has struck the ground
the miracle you tried to find
was hoping to stay lost

you were not there you were not there you were not there

    The bronzed water sits still and magnifcent at the foreground of this shot as the water rushes and trickles over the drop behind it. It’s the foreground water I love the most and love the beam of reflecting light down the middle.

    okay, this is my favourite shot so far of these falls. This is nothing short of brilliant. I just love the angle here and how i can see the perfect clarity of the water and the stunning rocks beneath. What an amazing composition. You’ve really pushed the 10-20 to its limits here and come out with a head-shakingly good result! Now, let me continue, your song sends shivers over me it’s so good. Love the lines “the miracle you tried to find was hoping to stay lost” and “I swept the world for signs to prove they were not there”. Far out Micka W, these are your best ever. you write so well, you accompany your photo so well, you are talent personified :) big FAVE!

  • Michael Walters replied

    woooooie thats such a brilliant compliment, im very chuffed right now, Im so happy you think this is your fave shot, i was kind of keeping it till last i think, the 10-20 was loving this angle, really glad you like it but more happy about how you like the song and think so highly of it, i really enjoyed writing this and seemed to get my head in that next level thing which i know you know what is like, Thank you so so much Laurette for making my day, so much appreciated:D
