Water Beings – v5

held by our cell walls
by the will of God
the design of our bodies
the cellophane of our skin
merely bags of water
a wonder that we live

water beings, truly,
light in liquid form
held within our bodies
given shape, substance
beings of light, of fire
found within the water

nothing of what we perceive
the true nature of our beings
not bound by bags of flesh
our bodies merely vessels
unlimited, eternal, light
made in the image of God
