i’m a river
you run through me
picking your guitar strings
but the tune is off key
what do you get out of
disrupting my peace
i’ll never understand
a lost soul, like thee
i’m a river
you’re skipping rocks over me
i can take a bruising
but i won't take a beating
from the words you project
onto someone who’s free
i’m a river
you mean nothing to me
i’m just a body of water
you treat me as a vessel
therefore i shouldn’t have feelings
how foolish of me
to fall like the waterfall
i’m not meant to be
- Lorne B
