Miles Apart

You see...... It's the distance Between the eyes And the heart That makes love Feel like an illusion Like trying to touch a shadow That has become afraid of the light Loving someone is hard When you seem to be A million miles apart

Your thoughts are beautifully expressed, Chris. "...trying to touch a shadow that has become afraid of the light" Fantastic imagery.
