Aiyah Torres Poet Free verse

From a Distance

From a distance, I see you shining like a star.
The wind blows your hair and silken gown.
Suddenly,the darkness covered the ground.
I couldn't see your face, your image has gone.

I walk a mile,just to send you back in my arms.
I need to see your face, I need an air to breathe.
I wanna feel your embrace, I wanna burn high.
I need you here beside me...I need you alive.

I remember when I spread an ash in the wind.
I told myself, I'm setting you free.
Though letting you go kills my soul.
I let the wind blow and see you go.

But this boundary seems so hard to break.
No matter how far I move my feet,
I couldn't turn back your breathe.
Thinking of life without you makes me weak.

Today, I see the sun shines above me,
Waiting for the time you hold my hands.
To walk with you another miles.
To share love with you in paradise.

Paul Callus April 3, 2014 at 1:53 PM Very heartfelt "song" dear AiyaH. Sometimes we find it hard to admit that somebody has gone for good, but then reality sinks in with all the sadness that comes with it. // Faith can smooth the grief; the belief of an afterlife and what it brings with it. :) // paul Aiyah Torres April 4, 2014 at 8:30 AM Thank you ,Paul... yes, a song from a broken heart.. :"0) THanks for a great comment... you are one of the " good guys" here in PS.. keep it up, man!!! ..:)))
