Stonecarving
I have always been stubborn, cliff walls rising against the world
I don’t budge.
Your river carves through me slowly but steadily
I used to begrudge you your freedom
Now I envy you.
I wish you could take me with you
I watch time and you pass
We’re wasting time.
I know now that I love you
Your arms rope me into your wild dance
I love it.
I think you swept me away with your current
I didn’t realize how wide the gorge was
You carved me away.
Don’t leave me now or I will have nothing left
