origin

In ancient days,
my love of you
lurched formlessly
among the wilds
in search of you
to feel about
in search of me
to feel inside.
Down all those days
without a form,
my love of you
grew mad and strange.
'Til we were born,
and it found me.
And I found you,
and we were changed.

Originally broken out as:

"origin"

in ancient days
my love for you
lurched formlessly
among the wilds
in search of you - to feel about
in search of me - to feel inside
down all those days
without a form,
my love for you
grew mad and strange
'til we were born
and it found me
and I found you
and we were changed.

Changed May 18 to this:

In ancient days, my love of you
lurched formlessly among the wilds
in search of you
- to feel about
in search of me
- to feel inside

down all those days without a form,
my love for you grew mad and strange.
'Til we were born,
and it found me,
and I found you,

and we were changed.

And now reverting much to the original form.

Annnnnd, had to switch the "of" and "for" ("love of you"; "love for you"):

In ancient days,
my love for you
lurched formlessly
among the wilds
in search of you - to feel about
in search of me - to feel inside
down all those days
without a form,
my love of you
grew mad and strange.
'Til we were born,
and it found me,
and I found you,
and we were changed.

You know what, fuck it. BOTH should be "of." Implementing.

Nope, first "for," second "of."
