Sail Away My Heart

By Aladdin Qatawneh

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

sail! Sail away my heart! Sail to the land of the rising sun, To the land of beauty and to the land of her arms Sail, sail away my heart! To the depth of her blue eyes, To the golden beaches of her smile, And to the soft skin of her warm hands Sail, sail away my heart! To the love I left behind, To the one I lost behind, And to the joy I miss to-night Sail, sail away my heart! And take me back in time Take me to my love, Take me to my romance, And take me to the memories I left behind Sail, sail away my heart! To the land of her arms Sail! And let me smell the skin of her hands. Written December 8th, 2001 © on Dec 08 2001 02:19 AM PST   18 • 0 • 13
