New and firstly, thanks for sharing your work. Short poems, I find to be difficult to manage. They have to give a strong emotional reaction so they need to have a new perspective on word play. They need to reach out. This poem I find, as some of the others seemed to as well, relies heavily on very tired imagery of water being the gentle maternal hug. "laying bare on moonlit water"
I almost would more believe "dove into the nights black waters" because it sets up the questions of souls and the idea of being a seeker better.
I adore how you took all the suggestions and played around with them, shows an mind open to possibilities.
