Red River
The river flows with the sadness of life.
It is stained a color red
The despair, fear, and sorrow keep it flowing
No one can stop the river
The sorrow that fills the water, runs from the people around it
Their cries filtering,increasing,expanding the water
Feelings of distress everflowing being the life it seeks
Despair it feeds on so ever searching for more
Towns flood as their hope diminishes increasing its strength
People cry as their dreams fade into darkness and drown in the river
Fear is the fuel it uses constantly receiving more
People begin to worry about what will happen
Looking into the future only brings them worry of what is ahead
This fear makes the river flow with such a fierce storm
As people drink the water they live in an endless loop
One filled with the sadness of life
Never escaping, never hoping.
