River of Time
Time flows on our bodies
Leaves hills and canyons
Time flows on our cheeks
Turn a lake into a desert
Time flows in our hearts
Bury love in silence
The river of time flows slowly
The past has never passed
Just stay upstream
Unreachable
But when the fingers touched
When we look at each other
It opened a window
The river of time flows slowly
The future has happened
Just occurred downstream
Dark or light or unknowable
But it painted lines on the palm
It planted a hope in our hearts
Like the North Star pointing the direction
The river of time flows slowly
The presence is riding a white horse
Deep in the current of the river
Nowhere to hide nowhere to hide
We can only breathe with it
Let the senses fully open
Let the universe rush in
Let the heart follow the waves
Everything goes to silence
The river of time flows slowly
