~The River~

by Ruby Wolfe

The river has become my favorite place to go to unwind and let my thoughts flow.

It knows all my secrets but would never judge me too harshly

The stillness of the water is just the calming I need at the end of a long day

The River is like my soul; can be calm, peaceful and so serene; Yet can quickly change to raging, overflowing and completely out of control after a storm. Leaving behind a scattered mess of debris. May god have mercy on whoever comes in contact with this river that has become me.

I won't ever claim to be perfect, perhaps lost at sea would be more fitting .

It's so hard to climb a mountain with these boulders coming down. It's hard to swim the ocean with these sharks lurking around. It's hard to fly the skies with broken wings. Through out these years my feet have been planted firmly on the ground..standing still not making a sound. But I've found my voice now and its time to conquer my fears. I'm about to climb the mountain, fly these skies and swim across the ocean, just to see the other side. I'll never give up as long as I'm breathing, I'll keep these dreams in my heart with hope in my eyes. I may not succeed at first but I'll surely fail if i never try..
