Untitled Puerto Rico Poem

I wrote this recently while on vacation in PR, but I can't think of a title.

The wind screams its bluesy melody

Trying harder, desperately.

The ocean crashes against the shore

Hoping to once again be pure.

The trees let themselves be moved

Hoping their lives will be improved.

The people wander through the streets

Chanting and fighting despite the heat.

My restless heart beats slower and slower

As my hopes sink lower.

You stand there right in front of me

Bringing back the memories.

Author's Note

I'm the queen of couplets haha.

This has a charming quality to it love, a beautiful poem, for every piece of happiness and reality, there is something attatched at its heels, bringing it down lol
Excellent work

i feel like it needs to be "lower and lower" just to keep with the flow there.. and also maybe 2 more lines before the last ones because i feel like it ends kind of abruptly
