Undercurrents 

The surface carries the leaves
Down the river winding stream
The broken branches of our lives
Are caught on rocks and left behind

Undercurrents unseen
Like the emotions moving through me
Altering perceptions in my mind
Through the ever changing shades of light

I'm falling under waves of sadness
Losing control
I am swept away in the deepest feelings
Pulled by the flow of the undercurrents

In time 
Through the rushes I climb
To be safe and clear again
Like the water above the weir
On the edge

I'm falling in love in waves of gladness
Losing control
I am swept away in the deepest feelings
Pulled by the flow of the undercurrents
