Lay it Down
I lay this body down
I lay this weight down
Water
Flesh
Muscle
Bone
I lay
As to dock
Harboring
From voyage
Long
I lay
This
Body
Down
Beneath
Star
Sky
Cloud
Storm
I lay
Into
Motion
Less
As a lake
When winter
Holds
I lay
This body
Down
Until
Heavy
Burdens
Gone
Until
Stress
Pain
Fear
Doubt
Ache
My heart
No more
Down
This body
To heal
Until
My spirit
Can once
More
Soar
