My Tale
I denied tide
I abandoned shore.
The boat denied me,
the sea outraged more.
I refused love
I forsook hate.
Fear caught me deep,
Time controls my fate.
I starve for light
I seek them too.
My faults' scars me
For every right I do.
I greed my joy,
I breathe my sorrow.
My tale will live forever
Even if there's no tomorrow.

My tale will live forever
Even if there's no tomorrow.

Welcome to DU I have a feeling you will be an awesome addition. I liked your other piece a little more, but I see a great poet in you.

This poem is striking in its duality. Reading it requires one to contemplate the poet's ordeal and how he has reached the state he is at presently. Perhaps JituBoro you should add a lil prelude to the poem to help non-abstract or symbolism influenced readers follow your string of thought. As for me, I easily followed u into your "pas des deux" of duality. thank you for sharing such a lofty write!
