River, my thoughts slide down you.
Breaking against your shoreline.
Slipping around your edges.
Pooling in moments of stillness.
River, I'd like to know you.
I'd like to understand when I
can't feel my heart if it's somewhere
caught in a system of rapids.
I feel like I'm handled by you.
I'm subservient to your every ripple.
Bending with the waves caused by
the elements or the tide of others.
River, I'm lost in you.
I'm turning in over myself.
Drowning in your merciful bliss.
Drenched by your constant attention.
River, I am your vessel.
Use me as you will.
But guide my mind to somewhere
where the seas are gentle and wide.
