Kansas

I look upon the water

and there I see,

not the person that you are

but the person you could be.

I seem to stare at nothing

and then I see it all.

I don't know what to say or do

to help you heed the call.

If you could only take some time

and see you as I see,

you would never have another doubt

how to set your power free.

I hope some day I am brave enough

to speak the truth to you,

until that time I will sit and look

and dream of all you could do.
