The River: II

A part two to the original work.

The River: II

Oh woe is me!
For I have lost what was so dear to me

Dear River, I see you weep with me
Your trees bend in and your flowers are sad like me

Although the sun shines and the day is gay
There is no beauty left in you.

Oh forgive me! Is there a way to appease you?
Dear River, I need to be near you.

It was you I was with growing up as a boy
Let me be a sacrifice for you

Oh woe is me!
For I have lost what was so dear to me.
