I reached down within, trying to grasp an object deeply placed
Then pulled pulled out a bloody clenched fist with an object that had been erased
Smeared, askew, and molted but this thing was so dear
It was my inner child, curled up and manned by fears
Shivering and crying alone and apart
I had to restore myself to beauty and this was the start
So i made my journey, one that stretch as long as time could bare
But I had to travel to this place, I needed what was there
So i reached it, exhausted, and barely able to stand
But i was amazed that the river of Jordan even purified the land
With slow steps i walked into the waters shivering with a face full of tears
I looked down and kissed my object as i was submerged by the waters crossing over onto a new frontier
But somewhere somehow something went wrong
I dont quite recall what happened but we stayed under too long
The black set in and the blue became cold
The air left my lungs, a situation i know longer controlled
That day we both died, it was for us whom deaths bell tolls
I wanted to end this one on a lighter note but in the mist of it all i couldn't do it. Have u ever had one of those feelings like some set a ton on your chest? Well thats what happened, but then i thought, if there is one nice place i could lie down for eternal rest the river of Jordan would be it. Thanks for reading, you all have all my concern and love. Now get outta here.
