on the rivers edge
he sits alone, on the rivers edge
a moment so close he can see it
tired boy, broken soul.

he hides the pain in laughter and light
never far from tears
tired boy, broken soul

A life poured out, for all to read
and on the rivers edge he thinks
"what have I left to give"

So tired, heart so heavy, on the rivers edge.


When I was a kid, I would run away from home, and always it was to this one spot on the river. My spot ,my hole, where no one could find me. As a man I have gone there too, to hide. I'm tired, maybe its the emotions, or maybe its work, but I need a break. Missmarie, I want the monkey to go away again ,maybe its to early to bring him back. Maybe I've gone manic, God I dont know!!! But tonight, I sit on the rivers edge.

You express yourself very well with very few words. I hope that you find what you are looking for in your special place.

Asking God to shower your heart and spirit with peace, strength, calmness and love. Go to your place and just be. Sometimes we have to stop trying and just roll up in a ball and rest. Your profile doesn't say if you are a Christian. I have a song that has gotten me through some very dark days. It is a Christian song and some people are uncomfortable with religious songs and such. I so believe that when it comes to spiritual matters, everyone has to find the path that is right for them. Email me if you would like me to send you the words to the song. Peace.
