Analysis of Blowing Wind
A wind blows
through my heart
as it did once before
It has taken away my love
with treasures
Unexplored
In a field of green
our passions flowed
deep within the heather
We pledged our love
within the meadow
with promises
of together
THE galeS blow on my soul
Unrelenting
And forever daunting
elicit to the sun
Filled with lust
and ripen offerings
before we were done
Forbidden
of her skin
AND the dropping rain
Angst is IN my heart
forever floundering
in a new world of pain
For the SUN'S light
no longer shines
on our love
where it pools within my eyes
It becomes the DARKNESS IN my life
as the squall rages by SILENTLY
in the dimness of my cries
THAT DARKNESS has taken away
all desires of her passion
which I did adore
As a wind blows
through my heart
as it did once before
