Forgotten

I found the place where the river falls

It drops into a pool of clear water

As it falls the mist that forms

Create the most beautiful rainbows

The path I took to find it

Cut through my shoes

Until my feet touched the earth again

I had forgotten

I began with borrowed clothes

That never seemed to fit right

I removed each piece one by one

Until I felt the wind on my skin, I had forgotten

As I walked along the rivers edge

The path gave way and I plunged into the water

I sank until my feet hit the bottom

The water was cool and awakening, I had forgotten

Now I stand at the rock edge and

Feel the heat of the sun warmed stone beneath my feet

My name no longer matters

I am here to see what I had forgotten
