River System

Slowly I wind
my way
down
the face
of the mountain
slipping between
rough cheeks of cleft rock
rippling through
wrinkled valleys
sliding over
smooth skin stones
washing away
the debris
of the day…
The future digs deep eroding
the past destroying
the me
that was.
I am crying
a river
of tears.

(Cassy)
