Sands of the Tide
You are to me
As water is
To a root -
To a plant
In the aspect
Less of necessity
And more of
Vitality
You may not
Be the life
In my veins
Driving me forward
But you are
The quirk in
My smile
Keeping me upright
You are
The kink in
My step
Keeping me in line
And you have
More power over
Me than the
Forces of war
You can
Twist my tides
And leave me
Torn.
So toward the sea,
I give my heart
To the wavering water,
Blindly dark.
