Crimson

the dam has shattered
the crimson river has begun to flow
once again
no stopping it this time around
the dam can't be rebuilt
the waterfall will continue on
draining into a pond
turning into a lake
into an ocean
faster every second
the crimson river has begun to flow
no stopping it now
does it even want to stop
continues down a path
of no return
splashin harder against the ridged rocks
the crimson river has begun to flow
