Never Shall I Forget


Never shall I forget that feeling,

The feeling of coldness on my skin

It gave me shivers,

Bringing me back to the river.


Never shall I forget that color, 

Evoking the feeling of being under a blue cover

As bright as the sky,

Couldn't see with my eye.


Never shall I forget the movement, 

Crashing into what’s ahead

Feeling like you're gliding,

But suddenly rising

Causing one to get lost,

Which would lead to exhaust.


Never shall I forget the pressure,

Pressing all up against my skin

It took all my strength,

To fight within.


Never shall I forget the noise,

Not being able to identify what it is

Hearing thoughts inside your head,

Predicting what's ahead.


Never.
