♪ GENESIS In the Rapids / It ♪

Moving down the water

John is drifting out of sight,

Its only at the turning point

That you find out how you fight.

In the cold, feel the cold

All around

And the rush of crashing water

Surrounds me with its sound.

Striking out to reach you

I can't get through to the other side,

When you're racing in the rapids

There's only one way, that's to ride.

Taken down, taken down

By the undertow

I'm spiraled down the river bed,

My fire is burning low.

Catching hold of a rock that's firm,

I'm waiting for John to be carried past.

We hold together, hold together and shoot the rapids fast.

And when the waters slow down

The dark and the deep

Have no-one, no-one, no-one, no-one

No-one left to keep.

Hang on John! We're out of this at last.

Somethings changed, that's not your face.

It's mine - it's mine!

" I'm tired of being what you want me to be

Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface

I don't know what you're expecting of me

Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow

 

I've become so numb, I can't feel you there

Become so tired, so much more aware

By becoming this all I want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you

 

Can't you see that you're smothering me?

Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control

'Cause everything that you thought I would be

Has fallen apart right in front of you

Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow... "

I set out one night

When the tide was low

There were signs in the sky

But I did not know

I'd be caught in the grip

Of an undertow

Ditched on a beach

Where the sea hates to go

With a child in my arms

And a chill in my soul

And my heart the shape

Of a begging bowl

 

Oh, I set out one night

But I did not know

 

I'd be caught in the grip

Of an undertow

Ditched on a beach

Where the sea hates to go

With a child in my arms

And a chill in my soul

And my heart the shape

Of a begging bowl

This is in Great Falls National Park, Virginia. The falls are spread out over miles. This is the Potomac River. I believe one of the trails and scenic overlooks is wheelchair accessible. I'm not positive on that though. There are three of them but they're all basically the same. They are right next to each other. The falls parallel the C&O Canal (Maryland side) which has a bike / jogging trail which is a couple hundred miles long with B&B's along the way for several day bike journeys. Kayaking is also allowed on certain parts of the river. Many get rescued and some drown each year. The undertow is deceiving. #NPS #GreatFallsNationalPark #waterfalls #Wasserfälle #cascades #nature #Natur #滝 #biking #Radfahren #Cyclisme  

Loneliness. Only the sound of the undertow

 

"Let the rain kiss you. Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops. Let the rain sing you a lullaby"- Langston Hughes ❤

 

We had a week of nothing but rain and cold and wind. I wish we could have sent some of this rain out west to stop the fires. The Great Lakes are at an all time high and the beaches are vanishing. One beach here closed when several people drowned in the strong undertow. I thought this photo of drenched Izzy the fox was appropriate, and yes, that is my bike in the background. :). Now the sun and sky are obscured with smoke all the way from the west coast.

 

Stay well my Flickr friends.

 

Thank-you to all who take the time to comment on my photos, it is greatly appreciated

I am learning more as I'm dying

I'm more sensitive and more emotional

And as I look inside myself I'm finding

This is spiritual

 

Ashes slowly rising

From the undertow

Fight or flight, I'm lightning

I've been hiding that I'm sexual

 

So now you know

I've been hiding that I'm sexual

So now you know

I've been hiding that I'm sexual

 

As I awaken this curiosity

I embrace myself, every part of me

 

I have been hiding my body

To protect my soul

All these insecurities

I've been hiding that I'm sexual

 

So now you know

I've been hiding that I'm sexual

So now you know

I've been hiding that I'm sexual

Thanks to my partner Eli Medier for his poem:

 

"Like an orchid

in the liquid night

over the absolute rock

breeze and moon

queens of the distant undertow"

Coming from the cold

Buried under heat

Lay you on the floor

Heavy like the force between us

 

Cut me like a rose

Turn me like a beast

Hold me on the floor

Heavy like the force between us

 

I was a ghost

 

Halted in flight

Kneeling

There of the heart

God undertow

Feeling

@ Ry X ♥

The black sand beaches of Kirkjufjara near Dyrhólaey are some of the most dangerous in Iceland with collapsing cliff rocks, strong sand-blasting winds, tall waves, and powerful undertows. It is often the most perilous places in the world though that offer incredible beauty, and here on this dangerous beach the waves crashing loud and hard against the craggy volcanic rocks were mesmerizing to me. I was careful to keep my distance from the water that our local guide warned had washed away and killed a tourist in the area just a few weeks back. The images I came away with were quite interesting and left me inspired for further Icelandic adventures.

Sea and the rock below

Cocked to the undertow

 

@ Badu - USA

Tayrona National Natural Park - This park is a protected area along Colombia's northern Caribbean shores. Along with it's beautiful blue water are mountainous hiking trails up to the ruins of Pueblito. The ruins were built by the Tayrona civilization.

 

These Caribbean waters are very turbulent in many places. On one of the days that I was there, a swimmer got pulled out by current undertows. It was touch and go for this guy for several hours. Everyone watched in horror as several rescue attempts were made. Eventually a jet ski pulled him out. Exhausted and freaked out he never got in the water again.

 

No motorized vehicles are allowed so you have to hike in with all of your camping gear or have supplies carried in by horses

I gotta keep the calm before the storm

I don't want less, I don't want more

Must bar the windows and the doors

To keep me safe, to keep me warm

Yeah, my life is what I'm fighting for

Can't part the sea, can't reach the shore

And my voice becomes the driving force

I won't let this pull me overboard

God, keep my head above water

Don't let me drown, it gets harder

I'll meet you there at the altar

As I fall down to my knees

Don't let me drown, drown, drown

Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown

So pull me up from down below

'Cause I'm underneath the undertow

Come dry me off and hold me close

I need you now, I need you most

God, keep my head above water

Don't let me drown, it gets harder

I'll meet you there at the altar

As I fall down to my knees

Don't let me drown, drown, drown

Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown

Don't let me drown, drown, drown

Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown (Keep my head above water, above water)

And I can't see in the stormy weather

I can't seem to keep it all together

And I, I can't swim the ocean like this forever

And I can't breathe

God, keep my head above water

I lose my breath at the bottom

Come rescue me, I'll be waiting

I'm too young to fall asleep

God, keep my head above water

Don't let me drown, it gets harder

I'll meet you there at the altar

As I fall down to my knees

Don't let me drown (Don't let me, don't let me drown)

Don't let me drown (Don't let me, don't let me drown)

Don't let me drown (Don't let me, don't let me drown)

And keep my head above water, above water

Coming from the cold

Buried under heat

Lay you on the floor

Heavy like the force between us

 

Cut me like a rose

Turn me like a beast

Hold me on the floor

Heavy like the force between us

 

I was a ghost

Halted in flight

Kneeling

There of the heart

God undertow

Feeling

 

I was only falling in love

I was only falling in love

I was only falling in love

 

Coming from the cold

Buried under heat

Lay you on the floor

Heavy like the force between us

 

Cut me like a rose

Turn me like a beast

Hold you to the the floor

Heavy like the force between us

 

I was a ghost

Halted in flight

Bleeding

There of the heart

God undertow

Feeling

 

I was only falling in love

I was only falling in love

I was only falling in love

I was only falling in love

I was only falling in love

 

Coming from the cold

Buried under heat

Lay you on the floor

I was only falling in love

 

Cut me like a rose

Turn me like a beast

Hold you to the floor

I was only falling in love

 

I was only falling in love

I was only falling in love

And now I see in technicolor

A movie script lover

You chase me while I play the clown, oh

But then you know, oh

I tend to stack the deck with wild cards

You're betting all you got on a broken heart

I say don't, oh

But now you know, oh

 

So I curse my stars for a fair game

While you nurse my scars and the old flame

I'm a fool for you, I'm a fool for

I'm a fool for you, I'm a fool for

I'm a fool for you (you, you)

I'm a f... you (you, you) I'm a f...

If I let you down like I tend to

I'm a fool for you, I'm a fool

 

Now I see shades of roses

Your love, I suppose, is an ocean the ebb and the flow, oh

An undertow, oh

But I can feel the rogue inside my veins

A way to crash the castle we made of sand

Oh, I hope, oh

It doesn't show, oh

 

So I curse my stars for a fair game

While you nurse my scars and the old flame

I'm a fool for you, I'm a fool for

I'm a fool for you, I'm a fool for

I'm a fool for you (you, you)

I'm a f... you (you, you) I'm a f...

If I let you down like I tend to

I'm a fool for you, I'm a fool

 

Old dog, new treat, a shorter leash

I cannot breathe, I lock the door

You flood the gate

Tick, tick, too late

But still, you know, I'm a fool for

You (you, you)

I'm a fool for

I'm a fool for

I'm a fool for

You

Best way to stay on top, is to listen to yourself. Love yourself and mostly be yourself.

Discovering yourself again is enlightening and amazing. Letting go is so freeing.

I've gotta keep the calm before the storm

I don't want less, I don't want more

Must bar the windows and the doors

To keep me safe, to keep me warm

 

Yeah, my life is what I'm fighting for

Can't part the sea, can't reach the shore

And my voice becomes the driving force

I won't let this pull me overboard

 

God, keep my head above water

Don't let me drown, it gets harder

I'll meet you there at the altar

As I fall down to my knees

Don't let me drown, drown, drown

Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown

 

So pull me up from down below

'Cause I'm underneath the undertow

Come dry me off and hold me close

I need you now, I need you most

VERSILIA-TOSCANA-ITALY ( Risacca)

Soaring higher I almost caught a glimpse

Thought I was getting closer to putting all the pieces back in my head

Thought I was finding where the lines all intersect

Hold the faint pieces of my heart out to kiss the flames

So near the surface I so longed to touch

So near to a life forever free from my past

The fear that the undertow would come someday again

I knew that the next time would be my last

 

There is no light that can reach me in here anymore

Eternal is the seal drawn upon my hearts door

No words, no reason, upon my soul they feed

The flaw that sleeps between your wish and your dream

 

I fall

From the light

 

The feeling of the water rising once again overhead

I lost myself in the crowd, I can fake a smile

The voices taking over only lust for your destruction

Now see the last sunset is drowning in my dark

You never really loved me just the concept that consumed me

You were blinded by its light; I was penetrated by its horror

There is no where left for my wrath to hide

Agony at climax, but I know you want more

 

There is no light that can reach me in here anymore

Eternal is the seal drawn upon my hearts door

No words, no reason, upon my soul they feed

The flaw that sleeps between your wish and your dream

Building castles in the sand

Look through my past

To a house that's bulit from glass

I'm casting stones at the feet

A foundation incomplete

Please rescue me

Come rescue me

Come rescue me"

Doesn't look that rough does it? But the Red Rip Current warning flags were out up and down the beach. Thanks for the visit and have a good mid-week.

...is what I call waiting until the last moment to quickly pull your very non-weatherproof camera out of the way of an incoming wave, then trying not to get wiped out by the undertow!

Down and damp with the crashing waves.... relatively safe, with one eye out for a rogue wave... so beautiful and exciting... and then just a moment of light on the beach and a breaking wave...

Poses are my own

 

Swallowed by the undertow

No lock and there's no key

There's no bottom there's no letting go

Just time beneath our feet

Can't say I tried to resist

Caught up again and again

Am I mistaken

Losing sight and losing grip

Still together but alone

I know this hand

I know this face

I miss it when it's gone

Stay

You're hypnotic

Your shadow's in view

Vibrating Constantly

Vibrating Constantly

Piece by piece, stone by stone

Your darkness comes through

Numb by Linkin Park

 

I'm tired of being what you want me to be

Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface

Don't know what you're expecting of me

Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

 

(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

 

I've become so numb

I can't feel you there

Become so tired

So much more aware

 

I'm becoming this

All I want to do

Is be more like me

And be less like you

 

Can't you see that you're smothering me

Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control?

'Cause everything that you thought I would be

Has fallen apart right in front of you

 

(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

And every second I waste is more than I can take

 

I've become so numb

I can't feel you there

Become so tired

So much more aware

 

I'm becoming this

All I want to do

Is be more like me

And be less like you

 

And I know

I may end up failing too

But I know

You were just like me with someone disappointed in you

 

I've become so numb

I can't feel you there

Become so tired

So much more aware

 

I'm becoming this

All I want to do

Is be more like me

And be less like you

 

I've become so numb

I can't feel you there

(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)

I've become so numb

I can't feel you there

(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)

Is that a shark in the water??? Bottom left??

Little girl,

I don't know why you stay.

If I had a feather for every time daddy said that I could fly away.

Old habits are so hard to break

It'd be a shame to stop now that I've started to make really good mistakes.
