The sun fades into the sea
The fire on the water
Weaker than that in my heart
The depth of the sea
Contrasts poorly with my love
I drink of your lips
No wine can compare
We fade together
Yes, it’s an original work, no matter how derivative and simple it is, complete free verse…

Say not the struggle naught availeth,
The labor and the wounds are vain,
The enemy faints not, nor faileth,
And as things have been they remain.
If hopes were dupes, fears may be liars;
It may be, in yon smoke concealed,
Your comrades chase e’en now the fliers,
And, but for you, possess the field.
For while the tired waves, vainly breaking,
Seem here, no painful inch to gain,
Far back, through creeks and inlets making,
Comes silent, flooding in, the main.
And not by eastern windows only,
When daylight comes, comes in the light,
In front, the sun climbs slow, how slowly,
But westward, look, the land is bright.
