I sat and watched yesterday
As the waterfall descended
It was a natural occurrence.
The force at which it clashed
Was an unstoppable downfall
Shattering all the peaceful lies.
The fall was strong and violent
Too menacing for my own good,
Brutally savaging its own owner.
At the same time it was radiant.
The water was warm and clear
And it hid no secrets of its love.
I watched helplessly far away.
I did not know what I wanted.
Did I want it to stop or go on?
Natural beauty in front of me,
Burning my sight and my heart
As it collected my tears falling.
Author notes
No, it's not literally about a waterfall. It's about words and my lack of control over them.
