Distant Lovers
Distant lovers mourn
Searching for the soul's mate
The magic that is love eludes them
Intense fire is what they hope to create
Yearning for the flesh
Lost within the sweet nothings recited
The urges are penetrating deeply
Just as a single candle, who wants its flame ignited
Lonely nights become unbearable
Hard to sleep softly when the bed is made of nails
Eyes wide open as the mind wonders
The coin flip for love----call it --- heads or tails?
