My river

My tranquil, trickling river
you soothe my raging water
for I am but the shoreline
the fearsome ocean's daughter

Your outlet is my diary
my thoughts I do surrender
you take my sobbing woes
and love them oh so tender

oh how I love you, river
your flowing crystal sheath
and while I feel so saddened
you shield my tears beneath

wash over me, my river
the way you always do
please sing to me your rhythms
the way I hum to you

so, come with me dear river
let's flow away together
'cause I love you oh so dearly
and I'm by your side forever
