Love's Fine Line (Free verse) by peaceseeker

finally our voices intermingled after several long months apart like rays of sun through the frozen rain of your strange marriage you know you are walking a fine line between your love and earthly desires keeping me at arm's length and with your embrace simultaneously harvesting and planting seeds to sprout in your garden hidden deep in the forest under clouds of self indulgent precipitation and sparkling stars shooting out of constellation for the purpose of eluding my gaze still I mistrust your voice and your timing throwing me off balance while walking my own fine line between love and evolution away from betrayal of your wife all of this, my wake-up call in a world of private investigations

Dalia – its an interesting piece with some good hooks – I think it needs some structure changes though.

this is one thought:

“finally our voices
intermingled
after several
long months apart
like rays of sun
through the frozen rain”

then another:

your strange marriage
you know you are walking
a fine line
between your love
and earthly desires
keeping me at arm's length

and so on.

I think if you break them out and flesh them out they piece will be better for it. You might even find there are two separate poems here.

Some of the not so subtle sexual metaphors can be toned down a bit too, btw.
