„Heimkehr“ entstand von 1823-24: Es geht wieder um Leidenschaft und unglückliche Liebe, aber auch um den Stellenwert solcher „Sentimente“. Das lyrische Ich kehrt nach unbestimmter Zeit in die Stadt am Meer zurück (Lübeck), in der einst sein Liebchen lebte, die nun ausgezogen oder sonst wie ungreifbar ist. Die Stadt ist für ihn nun leer, kalt, unwirklich und voll schmerzlicher Erinnerungen. Das lyrische Ich hat seine Geliebte wohl nur still und heimlich angebetet, ohne es ihr zu gestehen oder seine Liebe zu zeigen. Liebe ist am schönsten als Sehnsucht, als Verlangen und Schmachten, dessen Erfüllung nicht unbedingt erwünscht ist.

Die Nordsee (1. und 2. Zyklus)... diese Ausgabe kann ich dem überrheinischen Publikum nicht zuschicken, ohne sie mit freundlichsten Grüßen in ehrlichster Prosa zu begleiten.

Seit einiger Zeit sträubt sich etwas in mir gegen alle gebundene Rede, und wie ich höre, regt sich bei manchen Zeitgenossen eine ähnliche Abneigung. Es will mich bedünken, als sei in schönen Versen allzu viel gelogen worden, und die Wahrheit scheue sich, in metrischen Gewanden zu erscheinen. – Heinrich Heine.
