A collaboration by Peter Paton and Huda Orfali

..........................................................................

Away from you



I am a soldier without his heart

Beside my ballerina

Our world stands still


 

Yet she rotates alone

While the soldier flies

On wings of speed

Never to come home again


 

I gaze into your eyes

And see the look of eternity there

When our lips meet

Tis the taste of heaven


 

Yet it is a mirror

Her lonely reflection

Is all she sees

A heaven away from her reach


 

Her soldier is in a foreign land

Where love is a forbidden dream

Where a dream is a sin

Yet she dreams


 

Still the candle burns brightly

Knowing love will always prevail

For when two angels meet

Paradise opens every door


 

Peter Paton & Huda Orfali

Where love is a forbidden dream
Where a dream is a sin
Yet she dreams
Wonderful expression of determination and the triumph of love over adversity and war
Well done, Huda & Peter

Dear Peter and Huda,
Your poem is powerful!
"...love will always prevail..." Yes, yes may love overtake war!! This may occur if the ballerina ran the world. "The hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that can run the world". "Women" are intrinsically empowered with true love and care! Love for the children; the innocents, is far greater than “More Land”—the Sanskrit meaning for “War”.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful souls!
And, I love the pic!
Love, Suzie :-D

A timeless piece to treasure for those who's love is afar, or no longer here. Excellent write!

The true ache of love between a soldier and his woman is one of endless beauty regardless of the outcome that war can sometime bestow. The heart allows the soldier to fly to war never knowing if they return and so often that heart os a vicitm of the same war that took the romantic heart away forever.
