Persistence
--------------------------------------------
The river rages, like a beast
Yet, it does not cease to be a river
It may freeze
It may still
Yet these are just moments for it
The water shall flow
Regardless
If the stillness allures you, remember it's storm
If the storm scares, remember it's calm
Yet, it shall be, all it is
Nothing but a river
You cannot hold it, yet it is there
In you wake
In your dreams
In you darkest moments
In you brightest joys
Just so
It is
It will be, yet most wish to measure
For a river seeks none
All it is , is
All it will be, will
You may pass, but it remains
Like you knew
But , never the same.
