In the breakers misty blow the same old heartache strikes again a heavy swelling in my throat far away from tender hands. In a sure way I'll stay cold on a windswept deck away from the memories big and bold of a golden yesterday. A piece of heaven in my soul turns to memories of the past where a distant fire glows, a lovelight candle calls me back. Here I stand alone again ten thousand sailing miles away with a cold and restless wind blowing on my tear stained face. Echoes roaming through my mind loving times at port of call from the girl I left behind on the shores of Montreal. There's no lighthouse to be found no sacred papers made for me away from her I'm ocean bound sailing on a cold gray sea. In the breakers misty blow the same old heartache strikes again roaming round my empty soul the same old heartache greets the end. Celtrue2000@E3B1G9 |

Great poem, I know how difficult it is to be away from loved ones, it is a very real experience, making this poem emotive, tragic, yet true - a great combination of things to have in a poem, well written thanks .
