Promise is not to keep,
But to break the ocean like emotion,
In atomic pieces, in electron, proton and neutron.
There I'm a sailor of the lonely ship.
Which wave swings my gushing heart,
I don't know which immense power,
Is guiding me in this crucial hour
Pacifying my tormenting soul with its dart?
I can sail now miles and miles,
Whether the day is windy or stormy,
That force will drive my ship and me,
My love then stealthily smiles.
Your promise you did break,
I strove to keep the sinking light.
You wanted to stay out of my sight;
But my love did never shake!
The last paragraph, Concludes: Your Promise you did break I strove to keep the sinking light You wanted to stay out of my sight But my love did never shake It signifies how you were able to compromise yourself on some promÍse that was never kept, it puts emphasise on the fact that, you tried regardless of the promise that was never kept, I adore this last paragraph, a strong concept of sacrificed slightly appears in a way, wonderful The_African_Son
i liked the comparisons.the line was great But to break the ocean like emotion, In atomic pieces, in electron, proton and neutron. the poem, i think tells is about the unfailing faith of the narrator, to her love, even though her love had broken promises and had left. the abba scheme went unnoticed the first time i read it, but now i like it in the poem.good one.
