Wounded Ship Sail away wounded ship With your ghosts of heartaches past Make way old worn vessel For "peace" I've found at last I have filled your ocean full of tears For far: far too many years Now the waves are no longer crashing And my heart no longer fears Bellow your sails, with wicked winds And rock straight into hell Do not dock at any port Let no other, hear your bell Sail away wounded ship Back from whence you came Your tears will rain with thunder For heartbreak is your name © tori 2000 |

Wow Tori Sounds like a butterfly has broken free from an unneeded casing and emerged into the sunlight at last to test its wings in the gentle winds.... Great read hope to see more...nona |

A terrific plea, and a resounding rejoice - superb writing, Tori. I enjoyed this poem very much. I especially like the ending. A terrific metaphor you've written. |

Beautiful the way you have put this... I know the beauty of finding peace after a heartbreak has mortally wounded a heart...time passes slowly and when peace arrives it is full of cleansing and purity....James |
