Naive II (The Wuthering Heights)

(tribute to Emily Bronte:
-The Wuthering Heights)

I'm holding you strong - so strong!
In my arms...
unlike our love
the wind howling outside
doesn’t reverse everything in its path ...

where is it coming
where is it going
this howling wind – this love of ours…?
I'm holding you strong - so strong!
In my arms ...

unlike our love
nothing & no one will ever remove
you from my arms.
(Feel so are things of the past, they say…)
yet we do not care for we dare…

we dare being two bodies-one soul...for unlike
our love,that the wind stops blowing or not
I will never-ever stop
of holding you strong - so strong
In my arms…

I'm sorry, Jeos, but from the title I'm assuming this was written many years ago before you learned to write poetry. Your current stuff is certainly more coherent.

This is indeed naive and baffling.
The repetition is... just that, repetitive for no apparent reason.
And some of it doesn't make sense:

(Feel so are things of the past, they say…)
What does it mean?

This stanza is also garbled

we dare being two bodies-one soul...for unlike
our love,that the wind stops blowing or not
I will never-ever stop
of holding you strong - so strong
In my arms…

Emily is presumably spinning in her grave right now.

I'm afraid it reads rather like a pulpy 60's love song. I can almost hear the Mersey beat and harmonised vocals in the background. Kate Bush already made a song of Wuthering Hights, and although I'm not a particular fan of hers (although in her youth she was very nice to look at and had an amazing voice) I'd say she did the subject more justice than this appears to do. There's no tempestuous melodrama here, which was my lasting impression of the book. The overall effect is anodyne, I'm afraid.

Live and be well - H

^And I was going to say terrible 90s love ballad.

Wooaaooh...! (me howling)
