Away
River, run
Away from me,
And keep your shallow song,
For my heart cannot bear to hear
Your voice
Sunlight, hide
Away your face,
And cast away your mirth,
For my soul cannot stand to see
Your eyes
Forest, burn
Away your leaves,
And find a darker form,
For you’ll no longer shelter me
From storm
Seashore, sigh
Away your grief,
And take your heavy tide,
For I’ll no longer listen to
Your cry.
