SO FAR AWAY

SO FAR AWAY

A Poem by Lou R

Your words are written in my heart

 

From far across

 

   the dark and windy sea

 

I hear your voice as the seasons pass

 

You're far away

 

So far away from me

 

 

Here in this city I lay my head

 

And I wonder

 

   just where you are tonight

 

I'm a fool to fall in love with you

 

So far away

 

So far away in the night

 

 

And darling can you hear me

 

Calling out across the blue

 

If you were only near me

 

Oh if you only knew

 

 

But you're far away

 

So far away from me.

I really loved the repetition in this piece, it sounded really pretty without being obnoxious. I loved the lines "From far across / the dark and windy sea" That's beautiful imagery. o= Great job with this!
