Words of Semblance

Far you go
You ask me to come near,
You walk alone and quiet
You still try to reach me here.
 
In the words I write
You know I find you in me,
Still you will inhume
I know you are lonely without me.
 
Far you go
You still try to see me close,
I hear you to whisper
When I write about you in my prose.
 
In the rhymes I recite
You know I feel you speak to me,
And there when you read
I know you are lonely without me.
 
Far you go
You still try to smile with me,
I hear you to cry
When I ensure you are hiding behind me.
 
In the fate I bode
You know I quest for your company,
I walk with whose shadow
I conceive that to be your imagery.
 
In the words I write
I often speak to you only,
And now when you are reading
I know you find me here only.
