lost in a river
water against me
twists and turns
pushing against water
hear gushing
flows and falls
ride along
with unstoppable motion
now turned around
see a drop
splash, terror
life too early washed
see a turn
lead me astray
as I fall
into a sideways drift

lost in a river
water against me
twists and turns
pushing against water
hear gushing
flows and falls
ride along
with unstoppable motion
now turned around
see a drop
splash, terror
life too early washed
see a turn
lead me astray
as I fall
into a sideways drift
