prosepiece - so

so intense the love that left
a wake so deep and heart bereft
and roving in a restless sea
undocked and anchor tied to feet
the struggle so to stay above
and breath gets choked on inhale of
a memory so strong it keeps
my love submerged just underneath
the rage of storm that churns in soul
and choppy, heavy-hitting blows
breathe deep and try to float on swells
that crest, and tip, and break the spell
of dryness, drought and brought to grave
lover limp and lifeless
no hero can save.
