The Past Tense of Rise: When the tides rose

When the water was too fed up with disappointment
As the wind became filled with bitter enjoyment
The Earth's movement had been inflicted by another
Creatures in the sea swore they'd never succumbed
To Pain, False love, and Agony
This was when its soul took a turn for the worst 
The sky gave up on kissing its face with blue madness
And the sea's reflection was no longer that electric true magic 
Hollow and chaotic waves became tragic 
And this was when the tides rose 

Silence became louder than any word ever spoken 
The clash of clear water and thick wind was love's token 
To lash out on every time its heart had been broken
Tides rose as high as the face of the white clouds
Lover's fell, Lover's killed, and Lover's revealed their intentions proud  
Secrets, Sins, And Obsessions
This was the day the tides rose
