A River
it’s 1:34 in the morning and I’m yet to fall asleep
My feet are submerged in the water and here I’m almost knee-deep
I can’t breathe
And I’m drowning
In a river of regrets
My head is in the shadow
And I’m falling like the rest
He was supposed to meet me here
He was not supposed to leave
I thought I’d go to the river
But I didn’t know it’d be just me
It’s 9:22 in the evening and I’m yet to be awake
My hands are cold from the surface and the rain has hit the lake
I can’t swim
And I won’t
In a river of regrets
My eyes are in the shadow
And he’s falling away from this
I was supposed to meet him there
I was not supposed to leave
We thought we’d go to the river
But we didn’t know it’d be just me
I thought I'd go to the river
But I didn't know it'd be just me
I thought I'd go to the river
But I never knew it'd be just me
