She was the moon
That aroused my overwhelming tides
Of love.
I had no choice but to flood every land near me
If only to catch her attention. But she
Only beckoned me further
And she knew
Even my tidal waves could not rise
Enough to meet her
No soul of any creature in my sea could lend to me
The power.
And I wreaked havoc
Brought raging storms,
Consuming floods,
Lethal surges of
My love.
For who could stop me?
I was a force of nature.
Uncontrollable.
Untouchable.
All-powerful.
Yet she broke me. Ripped my oceans apart—
Tearing my soul
Because no matter how much my tides rose
She was millions of miles away.
Yet, fooled me
By looking so close
You could even see her meet my seas at night
Though it was only an illusion. .
She was always quite the seducer.
Destructive,
Margo
