Soon I’m Me (very early draft still)

Mother, mother, see me fly up
So high up, like the waves out over
The sea out there, that looks so close,
So near to where I swing so high

In the sky, so high up I can see
The sea and waves, still rising like
The sun, which blinds my eyes, like God
Bright and glowing around me.

Mother, mum, the sea, it’s so
High up over my head, my hair
Now wet, my body cold and thick,
My belly now full, my lungs, too.

Mother, ma, the sea pulls me
Away from you out over there,
Your fingers small, your cry silent
As when at night I’m in bed.
