Nakapenda

Nakapenda {and then I loved} 

Within the cloud of darkness, 
I rest upon the rhythmic Earth
and deep into the roots of life
I first heard the river flow

The path seems sponaneous
But I'm called to where it leads
Consumed by the energy
I slip in and I am free

The depth is so inviting
the speed I can't control
break through the vines
wrapped 'round my wrists
and give myself to the soul

Trust in that which calls
a force that draws me near
This sleepless trail
to find his warmth
a destination now so clear

Awakened by the whispers
which tell me of a choice
to find the love that sang to me
or let him have a voice

(p.s. -Nakapenda is Swahili... I got the translation from in the interweb, so if it's wrong I apologize)
