From a Distance

Here I ponder ~ beside the silvery sea looking at the vastness of the unknown far away~ The distance between us~ who can measure? The love I have for you~ who can define? The longings within me~ as deep as obscure abyss; But my love, you are a light-year away; How many ages do I have to travel just to be with you in one wondrous winter night? My wings are yet growing~ How I wish they grow so fast that I could fly to reach the sky and sit on the clouds where your image is carved for to be with you is all that could bring me peace~ to feel the warmth of sun again, to see horizon smile again, and blow rainbows in the sky. 01.27.2021 Relationships Poetry Contest Sponsored by Robert James Liguori
