Love Is Actually a River

The banks are eroded by the swelling river
On surging water the dislodged soils ride
Unsure if they would disappear in sea forever
Or would build a new land somewhere with pride.
Lost love makes livid grief break the heart in splinter
On upwelling tears the distraught emotions glide
Unsure if they would disappear somewhere within
Or would build a new heart that won’t break again.
