Love Poem: Waves Crash Villanelle

Waves Crash Villanelle

The blue green waves crash
Into my mind with vicious hate.
My being rips with a slash.

The eternal ocean does smash
Against the waves of eternal fate
The blue green waves crash.

My memories become a brown ash
Whilst it's me you berate
My being rips with a slash.

Melodramatic thoughts I try to stash
Away from your most obvious trait.
The blue green waves crash.

Your idiosyncrasies cover me in a rash.
Beat me into submission-clean my slate.
My being rips with a slash.

As the dead flowers grow in my soul's ash
You call upon me this my final debate,
The blue green waves crash
My being rips with a slash.
