I stood in the river
as I always did
Playing with my friends
And the river played with us
I crossed the river
as I always did
Lightly it carried our boat
Across a million suns afloat
I went down to the river
as I always did
But the river was angry
Swollen,a flow gone awry
I didn't go down to the river
as I always did
For the river came out to roam
Took everything, including my home
I went down to the river
as I always did
On the banks lined our waste
A vomit of disgrace
I stood in the river
as I always did
Streams of soothing caress
Washing away; my pain undress
