Roll Away With Me

Roll away
Come away with me
To the tumble down cottage by the sea
Where eagles coo, soar in flight
White paints a peeling
It's thatched roof leaks

But I'm sure
Honeysuckle smells much sweeter
The roses seem to bloom in winter
Secret garden towards the back
Where we shared our first kiss

Stroll away 
Come away with me
To the cottage by the sea
Be at ease while the ocean roars
Salty air shall sooth our hearts
Leave our troubles far behind
Hear waves crashing under blue sky's
There burdens  aren't so hard to bare
At the tumble down cottage far from here

Roll away come stay with me
Your remember how we used to be
At the cottage by the sea
Leave the sharp suits and shoes behind
Reality shall slip from our minds
Your realise we're still young
Battles between us will be undone


Come away and stroll along with me
To where we met 
Just by the sea
When life was exciting
And butterflies reigned
In the pit of my stomach
Love sparked a flame

Roll away come along with me
To the tumble down cottage by the sea

Personally I think the poem is perfect like you have it, its wonderfully penned and lets the imagination take over. Made me think of the Bob Seger song Roll me Away. Its about escape
