Poet Introduction
I try to put my somewhat limited experiences into my poetry, my use of devices is sometimes a little forced but that's the price you part when you're a lit student
The Waves
The waves are her happy place,
We sit for hours and hold each other.
She looks at the waves
And says our love is like them,
For 'the waves never cease,
Only retreat then return stronger.'
The waves are liars,
They only pull you in,
Once in they drown you,
Sucking life from you whilst you grasp for hope.
But it's not the waves that lie
But those who lie by the waves.
She loves again,
As do I.
Love does retreat then return stronger,
Just in the arms of another,
I say our love is like the waves
As I lie in our old spot...
We sit for hours and hold each other.
She looks at the waves
And says our love is like them,
For 'the waves never cease,
Only retreat then return stronger.'
The waves are liars,
They only pull you in,
Once in they drown you,
Sucking life from you whilst you grasp for hope.
But it's not the waves that lie
But those who lie by the waves.
She loves again,
As do I.
Love does retreat then return stronger,
Just in the arms of another,
I say our love is like the waves
As I lie in our old spot...

Inamorata
Trying to run my soul dies,
And back to you my heart flies.
Do not mistake, I love you so,
But I've loved before, like all do.
I thought we'd love forever,
The final day did my life sever.
I never thought I'd love again,
You bring me such pain.
I love you though I cannot hide
I hope my side you can abide.
Take my hand as you did my heart,
Although it's not long before we part.
I only ask don't squeeze too tight,
I cannot face another night.
And back to you my heart flies.
Do not mistake, I love you so,
But I've loved before, like all do.
I thought we'd love forever,
The final day did my life sever.
I never thought I'd love again,
You bring me such pain.
I love you though I cannot hide
I hope my side you can abide.
Take my hand as you did my heart,
Although it's not long before we part.
I only ask don't squeeze too tight,
I cannot face another night.
