Far Away Valentine

He’s right next to me but so far away Hurts from youth left him this way He’s full of love and strength and pure But failing parents was too much to endure He dare not be close At least not too close The hurt was too strong As he tagged along Pulling on his mothers shoulder Wanting his dad Torn between two households He never had Running off to do sports Never bonding with thee Wish this hurt was’t so deep As it leaves me Alone but together In a world all my own Full of kisses one minute I feel like a clone Wanting to be closer Wanting the warm touch of desire Wanting to be wanted For that I’m on fire
