Distance of a Lifetime

There are many things to be happy about.
Sunshine, red roses, beautiful butterflies…
Try to be happy, take control of your life.

I was listening...at least it was a candid try.
And at the end of the pause of a clause,
I thought about kissing you, just like before.

I miss you very...very much.

Faint starlight still whisper about dreams
About new hope and promising dawn
From a distance of a lifetime, perhaps.

I was reaching for those stars, 
Glowing From the rooftop
Of a long-forgotten desire
That once belonged to mine.
