Poem Commentary

A lovely poem of tragic love.

Reflection

The ocean roars, it sprays my face
I wonder where you are.
I haven't seen you, in a while
Your face, your smile, haunts me

that fateful day, I lost you
I couldn't save your life
My love, please forgive me
my dear beautiful wife

The ocean laughs, sprayed again
sprays it's murderous mist
into my eyes, onto my face
it mocks my very grief

Curse you sea, I curse you again
I pray you fade away
My memory is trapped, within your mist
you fight for me, I fight for her
a never ending feud.

You took her then, I'll take you now
Bring you down with her
Your waves shall rise, your sea shall fall
then I'll lose my mind

You fight so hard, I want her back
her body shall be found
Your seas so high, they start to roar
that mist is turning black

I give up, my war is done
her body must be lost
You have won, I am done
I join her at your cost...

I feel the pain of loss and the anger that he could not save her. Your words gibe me goosebumps

Dear Venom, I don't particularly read poetry. However, when I do, I want it to be worth it. When I read this poem ... I feel that ... it is worth it ... Luna

nawhhhhhhhhhhh so sad, but so true, :)

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
