This River

Flowing…
like this river
Carrying many things
providing, and full of life; my heart
so pure,
became filled with pollution and when the levy broke
right after the storm?
My heart poured
just like this river.
And now the tides have receded
And lost souls wander
Just like this river
my heart too carries bones,
decomposing flesh
still flowing…
So now, slowly I will build a dam
confining and restricting my course.
Built the levies higher
and NO storm
Will ever cause my love to flow
Endlessly
Aimlessly
Causing death and destruction
No!
My soul will live
Rebuild
Provide, and be full of life.
Once again be pure
Just like this river…
