Woe is me, She is the sea, I am but land, And there I stand. Her waves roar, Love crashing onto my shore. Sun baked sand drinks its elixir, The waves recede, I shiver.
Woe is me, Woe to be free. Shake me to my foundations! A blind eye to those complications!
This agony! Come, reality, Look upon my plight, Take it from me, or it is here I fight. Water’s dance, A fluid romance, But I stand unmoved.
Awesome work! Love the title and the way you used it as a theme throughout the poem! You took something defined as affliction, and transformed it into something that sounds liberating, powerful, and free!
