I drift along
This river of pain,
Hoping for release,
Waiting for a way to escape.

Flames leap up
From the river of pain,
Grasping at me,
Burning me,
Scarring me!

Why must my life
Intersect with
A river of pain
So dreadfully often?

I fear the sorrows
Will kill me
If I do not
End this cycle
Of torture and torment.

Too long I've wandered
In barren loneliness,
Doomed to solitude.

Is this to be my fate?

Must I always walk in darkness?

Or will the light of love,
Someday,
Guide me out of
This river of pain
That threatens to consume me?

It was so green,
It was so bubbling with energy.
It was so promising,it

This river of pain flowing through my heart
Is slowing constricting me.
I do not know what to do.
All I ever really wanted
