Deep Poem by Shavon Harrington

When the river runs deep,

don't take it personally just
because you're not qualified for my worth.

My deepest sympathy for
you are just about as much respect as you have for yourself.

My deepest regret

When the river runs deep,
all bridges burn, the base gets strong,

No longer running, living with regret, feeling like I'm running a race, I'm above it all

When the river runs dry

Not one tear drop will I shed,
I lost all respect for you from day one

Still, I put all my selfish thoughts on the line, knowing


You weren't worth my time, petty attention, ungodly vibes, trying to fit in where you never began

When the river runs deep

Have you lost your mind? ; I never came chasing for your love, sure I offered mine?

But it was never composed in stone that you were my favorite.

To many unknown,

The competition that's lurking around, not enough love going around
