A Poem a Day (643): NaPoWriMo Day 14 - In the never of the ever

 
Day 14

Prompt: write a poem of at least 10 lines in which each line begins with the same word. This technique of beginning multiple lines with the same word or phrase is called anaphora.

 
In the never of the ever
 
In the never of the ever cast aside,
in the rolling of this sacred endless tide,
in essence strewn, a being, no need to hide
in this arched second shore of becoming
in someone else’s eyes something, waking.
 
In the never of the ever to be without,
in sinking deeply in and effervescent doubt,
in the purest sense, an endless rhythm’s flow
in waves of shocking colour, ribbons of rainbow,
in search of this difference always out of reach.
