We Wait And Wait To Be Together Poem by Anahit Arustamyan

WE WAIT AND WAIT TO BE TOGETHER
Set out from your harbour in the morning.
The dawn sun bounces like a toddler and plays with its own rays.
Both your sails and naval uniform are wrapped in the light of days.
The mild breeze is your compass and the sea gulls are your crew on your way.
Set out from your harbour to look for uncovered lands.
Find one and your boat will take me there.
That virgin land might be waiting for us with its nude and open hands.
We won't face immigration rules forging iron chains.
The blue planet may have a corner to build our roof on its chest.
Set out from your harbour even if the morning has a bath in the rain.
You will not feel cold anyway.
Your naval uniform is wrapped in the hopes warming like rags.
The crazy waves are not so heartless to break our destiny's neck.
I will light thousands of candles to pray.
The light flowing from their lips will reach you everywhere.
Do set out from your harbour to discover unknown lands.
The oceans will welcome us with their crazy waves.
Their crazy waves are not as heartless as the immigration rules making us wait.
Our ages melt like soft snowflakes and they won't come back.
We wait and wait to be together and meet in each mail.
