My Rock

As the city unwinds and street lights dimmer, my shadow can be seen silhouetting the river. The water is icy, I am lost in thought, driven by determination, in search of my rock. I know you are out there, somewhere near, come a little closer to me; for I am not to fear. Your past is dark and haunts your soul, I honour your presence, you are never alone. The future is now, right here at this moment, Please hear my voice It is comfort, you once said. I know you feel lost and there is no way out, I beg you please, to shout; just shout. You are my rock the one whom I respect, don't leave this way; I will never forget. My body is quivering the fear is real you are my rock, I will help you to heal. Not like this me alone by the river, you out there, lost, we will get through this together. I hear nothing from you as the sirens draw near, my screams now blood chilling, though you are unable to hear. You are one with the river I have lost my rock, selfish are you for this memory you left.
