Is my "Might Have Been" Love Poem Good?

Question

Islands and you

The photographs you sent

Of you in your youth

Devastated me

Where was I looking?

I did not know of life

Beyond the sea

Of ships or sea currents

To transport me to you

The sun on the sea

Blinded me

Mainland – my home

Offered shade and ease

That land I roamed

Offered transient pleasures, but

Taught no skill to sail a ship

To find an island – and you

And you, far away

Laughed and loved

And moved the earth

With those I knew not of

This is my loss – that

We did not look at ceilings

Silently, beside each other

Spent. on sweat soaked sheets
