water

Posted by Emily Stern

1. am
thirsty
for you
2. come here.
2. be full of yourself.

Tell me who 1. am!
But you will not define me.
You say how can 1. define
A river
That is new in every moment.
She can only be known by the rock who sits within her, or by her side
choosing to be worn by her. 
Effected by her many parts
Shaped and built by that which flows
Find the rock,
And you will 
Know the river
Because only the river knows what the rock once was. 

1. told you 1. was held by love.
