Imagine another reality
A threshold
A door that opens from the inside
A passage through a secret life of water
This is my invitation to you
Allow your own light to touch you
Play with shadows
Assist me in a ritual of Becoming
We enter a space beyond Time

Have you ever been on the very edge of discovering something that is greater than you are able to handle? Watch me.
Don’t take a sip before you tell me what it's really about
Maybe it's something else.
Maybe it’s something smaller.
Maybe it’s something nobody can see.
Today lets keep lying
For a little while.
