Alone By The River

Sitting all alone


On a log beside the river

I saw your face beside me,

My heart began to quiver.



Your eyes like glowing embers

Full of something, I just don’t know.

What the future holds? … it might be.

Yet, so afraid to show.



The water runs so freely

Like the feelings trapped inside.

I wish that it could be me,

for right now, it has to hide.



So until the sunsets,

on a day we can see the truth.

You will be right there beside me,

until I give you proof.
