My creativity, boundless as it is by nature, has forced me to publish some of my previously unreleased prose.
We cannot be lovers (provisionally titled)
We cannot be lovers you and I,
as I am of the Earth and you the Sea.
You swell and shift, your embrace elusive.
I reach out to you, and am broken up,
in another display of your capricious power.
As swiftly came rejection, you offer a tender caress.
I tremble to your ancient song,
and am no longer cold.
Intoxicated by the whispered promises of your liberty,
I am unchained.
Until by new light your implacable gaze gently forces me back,
to my place of longing.
