My friend

I remember talking to my old friends
in the place by the water
where the river trail ends
when I was young
They told me some
of their stories
about their life
about their end
Loves and hates and
strides and sins
I haven't been back
in a minute
But I found myself
on the river trail
by the river and
the old friends
then in the river
dipping in
But I was only cold
in my heart
cause I was looking
for a friend
Turning up those
stones swearing
she was hiding in
One, but the truth that stung
I would never find
and talk to her,
silent and scattered
she just dances in the wind
My forever friend
