I stop to look at the lake in silence,
The one that is almost as close to my house
As you are to my longing heart
And looking at it, I observe the following:
That like you and the blue sky it is beautiful
That like you it conveys peace and calm to me
That like the sea it can be crossed to reach you
That even on days of unbearable heat
You seem to lower the temperature and cool down my surroundings
That more than just an obstacle, it serves as an example
To prove my great desire and strong commitment
That with unwavering faith and hope
I will be able to reach you as I achieve my goals
That just I as depend on water for survival
You are tangible, refreshing and essential
That like the wildlife that it supports and shelters
With your aura you attract serenity and mental clarity
That as you inspire me and nourish my soul
I even see your reflection and you seem to inhabit it
