Unsure Calling

The river in spate erodes the bare banks,
in gushing waters the dislodged soil sails,
unsure if it would disappear in sea forever,
or would build a new land somewhere far.
The surge of sorrow splinters yearning heart,
in the stream of tears shards of emotion drift, 
unsure if they'd dissolve somewhere within,
or make a new heart that won’t break again.
