I am a River I am a river deep and long who snakes its way on canyon’s floor replete with snags Don’t dare to cross me echoes warn below my eddies seek to sunder you with fear I’m fastened tight to bends of earth amidst my bed of yearning stones with tumbling cries I own a voice profound but no one hears and ever surging ripples come and go But even time has lost its tone and ticks when twisting curls afflict my plight of sobs forever I will flow to salty waves without respite from nature’s path of souls A lonely river flows among the sea when nights and days remain the same in silt |
Additional Notes:
This is a blank verse written in iambic pentameter and no rhyme

I have never read a personifation quite like this. kudos on the achievement. It seems however quite sad and almost that the sadness is preordained. it is as if your love flows into a salty uncaring sea.
