The Sailor

She watched as her heart set sail, Not knowing what the future held for him, Her mind wishing fair winds and a following sea, Her emotions ebbing from stability , But she knew it was only right , For her heart really belonged to the sea, And the sailor smiled cause he knew that with her blessing he was finally free, So silently she watched as her heart set sail , And shed a few tears as her sun slowly fell.
