Closer To Far Away

A shade of yesterday resigns. As an ancient star never aligns. To shine beyond the path it's given. And let light in when it's forgiven. A cosmic trail of never ending. Lost in the mail forever sending. An unopened message of love. That only comes from up above. Return to sender ever ender. To never know a warmth so tender. Compassion's not addressed to some. A mailed letter that did not come. Forgiveness lives inside forgivers. For some, it's cirrhosis of the liver. Till death do part straight from the heart. For some, they just can't seem to start. An endless longing for tomorrow. To pay for yesterday's we borrow. In hopes all of our dreams come true. Before our time on earth is through.
