I Am Never Far Away

There are miles that stand between us
 sometimes I feel the distance
 there are times when you’re as close
As the tip upon my nose
When two hearts come together
And slowly beat as one
There is no separation
For I am never far away
In my sleeping hours
 you’re standing in my dreams
Closer then forever
And much closer then it seems
I smile and then I close my eyes
To create this reality
Our finger tips touch gently
 To embrace what is to be
I am never far away
I am always close to you
Miles fade away in seconds
From our first hello
We smile eye to eye
forever reading
the story in your eyes
 your loving heart
beats softly with mine
I am never far away
Your laughter is a melody
The music of the heart
Joyful and rapturous
soothing to the soul
uplifting and warm
a feeling I cannot live without
given freely
expecting nothing in return
I am never faraway

this is really pretty and comforting too. thanks for your kind comments the other day. I was trying to comment back to you then but got kicked off Soup. So here I am again and past bedtime! One thing, if you want to check out Horse to Hate again,you can see the meaning you missed. I put the actual full name of the horse into stanza one so that nobody would mistake what I was writing about. Nice seeing you new at Soup. LUv, Andrea
