LANGUAGE OF LOVE

My sorrowful soul has sailed the seven seas
Searching hoping you would be pleased
But on a fools journey went I
To find loving words I did try
But there were no words to be found
So I sailed back to you the world around
For there are no words in the language of love
There's only the look in your eye
The one that leaves me mystified
It makes me think I've died
And there's heaven on earth in your womanly grasp
For its there I feel the most like a man
I want to stand hand in hand
Face the rush of time
And I pray you will hold me endlessly

I leave most punctuation to the reader that they can read the poem in their own meter, mood and motility. I thank you for taking the time to read my work.

Good flow throughout apart from the last two stanzas, though you may have left them so on purpose.

"For there are no words in the language of love" this line kills it, I loved it. the poem is so good keep writing.

[Daisy]

I really liked the way you have painted your thoughts across beautiful words. Specially the thought provoking beginning and end of the poem i.e. "My sorrowful soul has sailed the seven seas" and
"I want to stand hand in hand
Face the rush of time"
Good transitions ! keep it up !

[RenegadeEscape]

Well written! This piece has a way in which the words come to life allowing it's readers to join the journey on the seven seas with the writer. Great job!

[Bear]

Thank you for the kind words and I am glad you enjoyed it.

[Aclestile]

A very nice read. The title is quite interesting.
For the review, and I hope you are not offended, I noticed you used trite phrases throughout the poem. Particularly "heaven on earth" and "seven seas". My personal opinion is that in poetry, one should create his/her own memorable phrases.

Just my opinion. If I offended, I am sorry.

[Bear]

All opinions are welcome, and I thank you for taking the time to express your self.
