River

Dark as the colour of a river
I taste your name
Roll it around my tongue
Dark as the colour of a river
I sense there’s a danger
That does not hinder me
I take you in
Before i realise
And i breathe with you
Before i realise
Like a lover
Down the river
Like the stories never told
Like a mirror
Of the river
With you i see myself
Dark as the colour of a river
You’re coming closer
I dare not even speak
Dark as the colour of a river
I see you’re trembling
I reach out my hand
No regrets
They’re wasted anyway
Turn around
I’m not here to harm you
