My bags weren't big enough

Raised by parents and friends

An ocean away from my heart



But my heart lived elsewhere, too

In a young woman

A moral, passionate, thoughtful

woman.



A heart lying on the frosty grass

The frozen balcony

Overlooking the city



A heart in America

With an unpredicted love

Concreted by a brass ring



A heart in the ocean

Where I flew over

To a new destiny
