You Are So Far, Yet So Near

Underneath the bright moon-light
The stars glittering on the sky,
I alone with a phone in hand
Awaiting for a ring.
It's like an unseen shadow
Which lies within us,
It's like a new-born stream
Which flows before us.
The distance is no matter,
The language is not burden,
No matter how much tired we are,
No matter how much busy we are.
That sound of hushed laughter
Over phone,
A sweet, melodious sound from far,
Seems so near and close to my heart.
Minutes into hours over phone
Fills me and my empty heart.
It's like a new adventure,
The time for you and me,
Dancing the rhythm of
Love over phone
Which overwhelmed me.
I love you much than
The sun loves the moon.
Much than the sea loves
The sound of a river.
