Your stone

The
Stones 
Were all
Different 
Sizes.
They 
Crossed
The largest
Part 
Of the 
Raging
River.
My life 
My purpose 
Is to 
Get to 
The other
Side.
Your 
Stone 
Was
Larger 
Than
Some
Of the
Others.
It looked so 
Safe 
So sturdy.
When
I got to
Your
Stone 
It gave me
A place
To rest.
Rebuild.
I started 
To feel
Good here
Healthy.
But then
I was pushed
Off.
Suddenly 
I was gasping
For air
And fighting 
The river.
As I 
Grabbed
For you.
Your stone
It shifted
In 
The 
Mud.
I was
Released 
Into the 
Cold violent 
River.
I made my way to 
Land to
Find a new
Path.
My clothes
Wet
Shaking in
The cold.
My heart
Broken.
I started walking,
Because
That's what
You do
When you
Slip on 
A dangerous 
Stone.
You get
Up and
Hope 
The sun
Will
Warm
Your clothes,
Your mind
And 
Your soul.
