Other Rivers

I never asked for moral amnesty
For all the sins that I have yet to regret
For all the sins that I have yet to confess
A swollen sea, tinged with bitterness
I sailed away, yet vibrant memories
Keep twisting streams of emotions - ocean tides
Keep winding like the waves, serpentine
Around of all that once used to be mine

I fled in fury, drew into myself
With a pressure close kin to grief
With a pressure - I never left behind
All the preciousness of a lonely mind
I passed the chalice, did it reverently
Memories that cast shadows, oh so long
Memories that - for what did I knew?
All the time I kept just for you

It reveals through the fall
Another river, another face
To man and beast - for all
... there is no grace.
