That river


That river
That keeps flowing down
One moment here
And the other moment gone
A decision today and
A broken will again
A broken will and
A precarious fall now
Let the waters go
Let the sands sit
Let the sands be yours
Let the waters go
Swishing, gurgling
Gurgling and swishing
Lub-dub lub-dub
That river
That keeps flowing down

the high cliff!



It returned to me
My high tide
And I darted ahead
With my waters far and wide
He stood tall as always
And as always
I crashed at his feet
Again breaking in a cry
A terrible try
My tides mellow soon
My calmer waters complain
And cry of the playing moon
I’d gain my high again
Volatile with energy
I’ll jump high in vain
Yet
What else would a sea do
But to try that one embrace
That a tight one
That at the high cliff?
