apart from my arms

from ‘Footprints in the Sand’

 

it's a such a long way -

other end of the earth

separation's inevitable

the distance is insuperable

and you cannot change

the direction of silver wings

but i'll be with you

even though there isn't

a hint on my presence

even though you can find

no my step on the sand

i'll become a deep sigh

of the faraway ocean

the fresh breeze

to cool down the heat

the first beam of the dawn

to awake your eyelashes

gentle rain

to quench thirst of your heart

in the hands of the instant

that will seem the eternal

apart from my arms

my sweetheart

There are some words used not quite correctly here, but that only serves to make the poem more charming.
