By the Waves of the Insane One

Oh, I do hope that she goes along with me In the woods, by the waves of the insane one Maybe she will venture beyond brokenly And maybe over the darkness and be gone Perchance she’ll see me, exactly as I am Man who’s devoted to taking the exam Not just in lust, but with romance at all sides We will be in love, passion we will abide Russell Sivey

Interesting write..Not sure of the exact interpertation but it seems to have a romantic touch..Thanks for stopping by..The work that you were asking about is a type of Poulter's Measure...Emily Dickinson used that stlye a great deal in her work..It is also called a type of Ballard but can't remember what..It is like this:a, b, c, b rhyme..Measure like this: a eight syllables, b six syllables, c eight syllables, b six syllables..When one adds two lines together they get 14 syllables..Sara
