i'm going to let my sins of the day wash away
i'm going to meditate
i'm going to pray
i'm going to the river
watch the waves
i'm going to take a walk
think about what made me this way
how i became who i am
i'm going to listen to the nothing
silent in a chair on the porch
close my eyes
forget about the violence
the angry waves
the bitterness
the hate
the death
the goodbyes
the lies
they'll go away
with nothing
i'll close my eyes
and let it go
let them all flow
watch them go by
like leaves on a river
