riverbed [ri - ver - bed]
-
Sink into the weight
of your aloneness
letting the rest of you
float to the surface
all those things
you’ve long held onto
But did not know
could let go of
if you only wanted to
until now
As you slowly
drop to the bottom
watching the world dissolve
into the mirror above
noticing a stillness inside
taking over so much so
That even the need
to breathe has gone
as well as the heaviness of
thought no longer
this is the power of cold
cold water
