The way (poems about love and loss)

love of sea

I thought I wanted to walk

And dance

Like the ones above the shore.

But o, the love I have craved

Has been deceived of eye

To think she is his Aphrodite

And Venus.

Alas! He doesn't know that I am his hero

Of the tide,

With my fins of green

And hair of red.

I thought I could rid her of this life

And him of her deciet.

But instead

I'll crawl back into the sea.

And forever be

A lonely me.
