Peculiar Words (A collection of poetry)

Tidal Wave

Tidal Wave

Apr 18, 2019

Forgive me

for the times I just sit there

not because I don't care

no,

because I care so much I want to not care

I am a tidal wave and you, the boat

I live for you

But the only thing a tidal wave causes is harm

You and I are a shipwreck waiting to happen

so, please

please forgive me

forgive the times I call at midnight

forgive the times I've told your secrets

your stories

I sell the memories with you

because they are you

and I love you

I want everyone to love you

because you deserve love

not the unpredictable tidal wave that is me

Unconditional love is a painful thing, as this poem expresses. The fear to love someone and hurt them often leads people to avoid love in general, and in this poem, the protagonist attempts to abandon their love, while still clinging onto them and their memories.

If the fruit were forbidden I would chase it
Not for the knowledge but the thrill
the adrenaline spike is what tore us from goodness
adventure draws me steady
for forbidden fruit ever tastes more sweet
