Yes, The River Knows

please
believe me
the river
told me
very softly
want you
to hold me

freefall flow
river flow
on and on
it goes
breathe
underwater
till the end
yes the river knows

please
believe me
if you don't
need me
i'm going but i need a little time
i promised i would drown myself
in mysticated wine
