Surrender

Surrender

A Poem by Solilokiss
"

Trying to better my writing skills with the use of format in Sea Fever by John Masefield.

"
I must go down to the seas again
To meet with my mother, Divine
This ship's wrecked and the tears ebb
To hear her wisdom overflow like wine
Upon the weary soul of I
Her daughter close to breaking
For a love has gone, his ship's sailed on
Her riven heart of woe is shaking

There was a time so long ago
Where upon these shores I stood
'Twas a time of promise renewed by hope
When in he sailed, 'twas good
The sands awash to my soles look just
Like the sands that kissed me then
And yet all the moments dwindled to dust
Maraud in the memories of way back when

I was so in love with Him
My eyes were thrice-fold blind
A heart in love filled to the brim
Overflown to his castle there in the sky
A chariot meant to take me home
Mother had said that I would cry
For here I weep just as she'd known
Taste the tears that surrender to your seas, Divine

Excellent piece...it was so nice that initially I did not notice the rhyme scheme...I just kept reading...
"Her riven heart of woe is shaking"
"And yet all the moments dwindled to dust
Maraud in the memories of way back when"

Sorry, Gleb, not Glef
You have a style worth reading. Also you are not a boring person to know. Anyone who doesn't see this is brain dead. You have shown it in your work. You are imaginative and know exactly what to say.

This is divine.

Like the sands that kissed me then
And yet all the moments dwindled to dust
