In the Distance
Tonight I can write the saddest of lines
writing for example, the night is of stars
and the stars are of opals and shimmer in the distance
The night winds revolve around the sky, it sings of resistance
Tonight I will write the saddest of songs
I loved her and she loved me too sometimes
Through nights like this one, I held her in my hands
as I kissed her
Again and again under the timelapse skies
She loved me and sometimes I too loved her
how could I have not loved her deep still eyes
Tonight I can cry the saddest of poems
to think that I dont have her and to feel that I have lost her
To hear the immense night, still more timelapse with out her
and the verses fall, into my soul, like pain for the pleasure
What does it matter if my hands couldn't keep her
in this starry night timelapse, she is gone forever,
no more is sure
This is all
In the distance
Some one is singing
in the distance
Some one is crying
some one is dying
Without her in the distance
Oh, it's just me
and my sight tries to find her
My heart looks for her
My ears hear for her
And now
I no longer love her
But oh how I loved her
and my voice tried to find the wind
to touch her hearing... in the timelapse sky
Because nights like this one
are like the nights I held her in my hands
but
This will be the last pain she makes me suffer
and the last verse I write for her...In the distance
