Song of Separation

It's just a song I wrote. Would love your comments and suggestions to improve. If one thinks nothing of it, be honest.

Song of SeparationHere's a song I write to you sanely in love
I wanna write you fast and short
That my words may reach you sooner.
Whenever you feel our love's boat in rough weather,
Think that it's just a passing storm;
That the serene season isn't far.

Yeah this is my song I write to you sanely love.
I close my eyes to see you laugh.
I whisper the words you ever wanna hear.
I say them over and over that you may hear.

Here's that song I write to you sanely in love.
When I think that you belong to time and place another,
Or that I know nothing of your thoughts,
I feel a tinge of envy not part of love,
Or is that what they call love?
This is my song I write to you sanely in love.

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
