Through Rivers They Came
Over miles, through rivers they came
Speaking softly to me your name
The ghosts of tears you have shed
The lines of red you have bled
Darker than the reddest wine
Floods your heart cries into mine
Over miles, through rivers they came
Speaking softly to me your name
For: Floreann's 'your heart cries into mine' challenge
