If beauty is seen with the eye let it rest
I could feel the tension, but not in my chest
I heard her scream over floods of people
"I won't be crucified at the top of that steeple!"
With every bit of cunning and ease
She jumped over the edge into the seas
As I watched this scene unfold
I realized she was in total control
A leap of fate or precise planning
Not knowing her life was what they were banning
She let the silence become a deafening sound
Running on water and floating over ground
Shouts broke out from the flood behind
As her body met sea and intertwined
"I can't believe this, is it real?"
They asked questions but didn't feel
She broke the surface and continued to swim
They all watched as the sun began to dim
As the moon cast it's light on the sea below
They saw her dancing in the fire glow
I heard her scream over the crashing waves
"You better honor the ones that are brave!"
