I went down to the river in my pain and it flooded me
away
washed to the ocean
where I now stand
ankle deep I wander for miles
in friendly waters
I glide past sharks, whales
dolphins and fish with sails
I looked for you there
but the universe had swallowed you
in its elliptical mouth
its massive arms
forever pulling me south
down
child bound
I collided with other souls
danced with them into the center
of the world
drinking the life force
of liquid pearls
small windows were my eyes
wide open skies
beat upon my chest
like wings of a thousand
falcons with silken breast
and I fell to the ocean
drawn to its magnetic unrest
drowning in all that I love
keep me here
I cried
upon this wandering
piece of fire
blind me
bind me
bleed me of all that I find....lovely

I am probably rather boring, but the characters who come to tell me about themselves, well...that's another story.
