My Cold Distance

In between me and love's folly Does lie a vast ocean so blue In between me and love's folly Do be waves, out of which none would ever get through Why, distance does me so much good Now, though I do be weird for the world I do be prude I do be rejuvenated Distance does keep me calm and soothed Distance does be what I needed For love’s folly was so overwhelming So much that imbibed with it, life itself seemed to be distorted Why, between our shores Battling do be the blue oceans They seem to tell me that I’m to remain all sore For only by being thus, shall I get to enjoy the skies’ horizons Why distance does be there in my heart, Distance which allows me to keep myself safe Distance which allows me to be imbibed in mine own faith Distance which I have transformed into my own fort Pray, mind you, see me not as a cruel person Of course, I shall give the world my sympathy, even my helping hand But then, from life itself, shall I maintain a safe distance Yes, for I feel better thus, encaged in between my border’s fence!
