Matthew Brackley Poet Ballade

The Last Yard and a Half

I will go the hundred thousand miles............
for you.
But not the last yard and a half

This distance so small
Yet I see you........
I see you....stall

One hundred thousand miles
I travel to you
When all the while............
This, is all .............
you cannot do

Yard and a half

Yard and a half
So very long for you
This gallaxy too

The distance you find,
is all in your mind
Reach out and take,
this yard and a half
Correct this mistake

This distance
So small,
yet I see you.............
I see you .......stall


To come one hundred thousand miles
To see you stall,
To see you fall
Your only trial

Yard and a half

The effort involved
Yard and a half
So easy solved

One hundred thousand miles,
in a blink of an eye,
because it means
that much to me........
I dont ask why,
because I know,
all the while,
I can travel..........,
to see you,
in your yard and a half
See it unravel
you let it ,........too
