Beyond the Blue

Facing the horizon,its those eyes that I see without watching you Its those those lips that I feel without kissing you Its those arms I behold without your embrace. Thoughts of you flood my heart with all the impossible. On barren sand my lonely footprints but somewhere in a distant land you walk beside me.

seems as a sad piece of longing and missing someone's loving embrace. Love can be so lonely.
