| ~~As my river flows~ here's my soul, with it my love I hold from you my pain I keep to myself my dissapointments I withhold my fears I will carry you, as I have always carried you I will hold your head above the drowning flood waters of you inner turmiol I will care for you Take care of you Body and soul I have loved you I love you like no one else ever will I have shown you the celestial levels of the condition of unconditional love I will never stop loving you I will be there to catch you when you fall I have been there to mend your shattered soul I will always be there to mend it I have asked nothing of you I ask everything for you I am about YOU I am wrapped around you I surround you I have been your shelter solice council lover friend mistress slave I give all this to you Now I am weary I listen and watch as you chop down the pedalstool you so insisted perching me upon you make me the target of your anguise of your rage I am bewildered I ask why you do this I watch as next to me you build a new pedalstool one grander and larger scale then my own I know my place just as I always have I know your arms I know they cannot reach the height you wish them to reach I have given you everything But I will not boost you to her arms I have done everything You have ever asked and in return In silence you take your scapel of mistrust disecting my heart yet you still wish to possess it I dont wonder why you do this for when mending the broken you will in turn create a lifetime of pain for yourself I chose to do this something I will do but recieve nothing but pain in exchange for |
| But I made that choice for I could make that choice I chose not to leave you floundering in the dry lake bed of your once flourishing love for another even now I watch as you take from my river of love as you take and try to dig a canal to fill your barren lake a place which was once so lovely now my river flows more rapid as my sorrow is released You dont think of me when your dreaming you think` of her I see it inside you I know so much now But my love will always be there to wash away your heartache...
