White Wolf Poet Light Verse

How:

How can I flood your waters 
when your barriers hold me back? 

How can I fill your mind 
when it's preoccupied and blind? 

How can I fulfill your needs 
when there is no way of pleasing these? 

How must I cross your mountains 
when your forest is so thick inside? 

How can I fly through your skies 
when you cloud the vision of my eyes? 

How can I swim through your oceans 
when your undertow keeps pulling me down? 

How can I walk through your deserts 
when your sandstorms keep blinding me so? 

How can I kiss you gently 
when you disguise the love I know? 

A collaboration with Carole Duet.
