Vague and unsettling attempts at poetry

Posted by Nathan at 10:57 pm

This began as a mushy love sort of thing, but it kind of evolved into an epitaph for my social skills directed at a crush of mine. Oh well. I suppose it came out okay.

High above hill and hole
Water breaks and waves roll
A toss, a turn, a bevy of quake
And all around I feel the world shake

Forces clash, winds collide
Turning and burning and bearing wide
A crash, a flash, a flurry of bane
And all around I feel the strain

Insomuch as this the world,
so my thought and every word
clash and fire, fight and flame
every word wrought full in pain

And in this so surreptitious state
I try and try to turn the gate
to loose the tide and let the words
flow and ebb like and unto yours

But I am tied, and in mind bound
for in truth and truthful sound
I am guarded through and through
bound for all and all for you.
