Miles Apart
Your smooth skin
mingles with mine.
We're laying together,
yet we're miles apart
on the inside.
I'm getting high
and you're passed out.
The beer you consumed
has consumed you.
The joint I'm smoking
pierces the blackness,
it's glow lights us up.
As I look at you through
the darkness,
I wonder,
in your moment of doubt
you wanted me to save you,
did my words fail you ?
Now two worlds collide,
mine and yours !
I curse that night,
instead of making love,
we walked away
to be miles apart
on the outside.
