Running water

Little dreams end
where rapids turn to calm,
gentle streams.
the rocky patches stall
mighty currents, torrents even
brush quickly by
seeking tranquil water

underneath lies
polished surfaces after years of wear
invisible rocks reveal flowing imperfections
a foundation of too much and too little
an abridged version of evident scars
I, like floodwaters on a rainy day,
seek the serenity that I will never find
