Tidal

A Poem by Britt

                       I'm not sure if I was ready for you to leave, 
                          Maybe I wasn't ready for you to begin with.
                                    I find myself asking; 
                      Do the sandy beaches on the shore ever get used to the waves departing
                                                         and leaving them to pull themselves together 
                                Again and Again? 

                                        Would it have been so bad if you had lingered?
                          If your waters had enveloped me completely... 
                             I would have welcomed you into my lungs
                                because what was mine was 
                          always yours
                                           and what was yours was 
                                                                        never mine. 
                                   Just like the beach is just a beach, 

                                                    Forever waiting for the tide.

I begin to sense a certain pattern in your poetry...

Hmm, what is it? ;D

Another good love poem. I usually dislike love poetry for the most part, but you have done remarkably well with yours. Keep it up!
