"I walked away,
not because I wanted to leave,
but because I wanted to see if you would try to catch me.
And when you didn't,
I had the strongest urge to turn around and come back...again.
But I didn't.
I just kept on walking."

The river flows and the water within it will never return the same
It has experienced new things,
been places where it has never been beofre,
reached oceans and seas around the world
It has been the home to different creatures...it will never come back to the river the same
