Song of Distance
Let the song of distance flow
With no words and notes
Just a hum of undertow
Swaying empty boats
Why do you ignore me
Am I such a pain?
That you cannot hear and see
Tolerate again
That strange person on the screen
“Oh for goodness sake
All that stories of his kin
Numerous mistakes
What a waste of time, and what
Does he want from me?”
Maybe one forget-me-not
That you cannot see.
Play for me, my love, you can
Use me like you want
Or forget me, if again
I’m too much a haunt
There’s a shadow on the wall
From another world
Sound of a distant call
That you hadn’t heard
Sing alone, you’re soon to bed
Cause it’s far too late
So a time a bit too bad
To communicate.
