River's Mouth

Standing in depth of river's mouth
Fighting strong currents,pushing me south
One step forward and two steps back
Searching for strength,I seem to lack
With planted feet,deep in the clay
Tour my options and what they display
Choose the right path,for which I must travel
And pray with clear head,it doesn't unravel
My goal is clear,I shall not fail
Must now find the wind to fill my sail
