Swollen River

She still feels this pain,
Deep inside,
She has him to keep her sane,
But the pain only fades.

He dims it while he's around,
But it grows when he's not,
A swelling river tearing at the ground,
Will never dry up.

He has become her pill,
But there is no cure,
Forever ill,
Drowning in a river.

Her mind is a mess,
Without him she can't breathe,
No one can heal her loneliness,
And all the memories she locks inside.
