Amah:Her Lit Darkness

All was but to no avail;his findings Had he sought her depth,her breadth? Had i had his mind,her thoughts? Had she alluded her whim veil;close? Her inspiration as grass;dark,crimsone kinds. But hers was as waves;legend untold Crashing frames off a heart coast;doom, Trains off of melt rails;?,!doubtful unjustified nightmare. First day was a stair case,puzzle fixed A bond of worlds amiss:cloned faces,fearful Both poets;one a lamp:the other match sticks flame set_smoky vapor. This then a kind never beheld;a legend doubted_ By many but wheels. This then remains,one hill;i a mountain But she more stall A lover,a friend;this,sovereign.
