So Close Yet So Far Away

I can feel her presence
Going through this adolescence
My lyrics are out this world
But I’m so down to Earth
I touch all her senses
Mind, body, and soul
The way I explain
You thought I made her whole
My words give meanin’
And every word 
Takes her through the ceilin’
So far in miles
To get there
May take a while
I’ll make her important
Better yet queen of  the Nile
So close we share the same pulse
 So deep she feels the impulse
Yet 
I believe the simple word
Cuts sharp like a sword
Yet is what split us
Yet is offended
Like someone cuss
So close to the end
Yet so far from it
