River of Blood
A moment of tears that rush down the eyes
As slow as a mellow rainfall falls from the sky
But the things we say to stop the rain
Do nothing but make it poor even more
Misled, mistaken, misunderstood
The tears she shed had no justice like they should
Instead of tears of joy like they seem
Hidden by the sheilds she bare
Dark and red as blood is there
Like the heat of the sun on a desert summer day
and water appears in a mirage kind of way
And you hope rises as you walk there
But it only takes a moment to know you're going no where
Or you're walking in the woods and see a river
And you're thirsty for the drink it could give
And your body starts to burn after a little sip
And that pure, blue water turns into liquid death
Because you drank from the river of blood
