My Rock
As the city unwinds
and street lights dimmer,
my shadow can be seen
silhouetting the river.
The water is icy,
I am lost in thought,
driven by determination,
in search of my rock.
I know you are out there,
somewhere near,
come a little closer to me;
for I am not to fear.
Your past is dark
and haunts your soul,
I honour your presence,
you are never alone.
The future is now,
right here at this moment,
Please hear my voice
It is comfort, you once said.
I know you feel lost
and there is no way out,
I beg you please,
to shout; just shout.
You are my rock
the one whom I respect,
don't leave this way;
I will never forget.
My body is quivering
the fear is real
you are my rock,
I will help you to heal.
Not like this
me alone by the river,
you out there, lost,
we will get through this together.
I hear nothing from you
as the sirens draw near,
my screams now blood chilling,
though you are unable to hear.
You are one with the river
I have lost my rock,
selfish are you
for this memory you left.
