The Hook and Sinker

Smooth sailing is for the righteous and rough seas are for the damned.
Karma existing, but so high in demand. It is evenly given out hand by hand.

Love given hand in hand, soon to be broken by the inhumanity of a single man.
Once a love buried in the dirt. Uncovered to reveal nothing but topsoil and sand.

Oh how I wish our love could have been considered real.
Affections casting out like a rod and a reel.
Looking for a happier ending somewhere beyond reality.
Searching for a light nibble on the end of your hook is insanity.
Because, no matter how long your line, or how heavy your weight,
in the end you will hold disappointment. Pure agony in your face.

At least for me, I have many years to cry. Many years to get over the look in her eyes.
Because tomorrow is just another day to decide, whether tonight really is the last night of our lives.
Will we end together in depressions and sorrow? Or shall we forget the past leaving our insides hollow...
Because together we help each other as friends or kill each other as foes.
But as I've been saying, our relationship as partners has come to close.


If only we could go to place where no one knows.

Maybe there, happiness could appear as fast as sadness arose.

Ah! This was totally free flow and I assume that while you were writing this piece of writing you allowed your heart to write these words on the paper, since as a reader I could see that how effortlessly you've written this piece of writing.
Writing a free verse is often the easiest way to write but sometimes our best emotions and our best work comes out from it as well :)
I loved the opening lines of it a lot, they gave the poem a very strong start setting just the right mood for the rest of the read.
The second half of the poem though changed the direction of the read, where you described about the positive aspect of every deed and how everything happens for a reason. Thus, the ending concluded the poem very well.
This entire piece is indeed a very well versed form about complex human relationships and....I liked it :)
Maybe there, happiness could appear as fast as sadness arose.
I Loved this line, I simply loved it!!!
It was very heart breaking and left me into thoughts for sometime.
I would sense that with time, you are growing so much as a writer and this is indeed a very mature piece!

Ps - Give this piece a title, it will leave a better impact and also...this piece deserves a good title :)

I would say free verse... and might fine free verse.... such deep meaning as you contemplate love and how it can be a gift and curse. It is really creatively and intelligently written.
