Down by the river

awakened

and

shakened

down

by the river

you are stranded

and shiver

cold and full of sorrow

try to warm up

in the morning sun

feeling blessed to be alive

one more turn

this is what you earn

Time stands still

down by the river

looking out

far ahead

nothing seems to

hold you back

walking down

the river

with your last clothes on

nothing to eat

but you still hear

your heart beat

You try not to cry

and keep your

composure

Hide behind your mask

and think inside what an

impossible task

awakened

and

shakened

down

by the river

you are stranded

and shiver

cold and full of sorrow

try to warm up

in the morning sun

feeling blessed to be alive

one more turn

this is what you earn

Peace ~ Love & Light
