So Far Away (11)
How can i behold your face again
when my eyes are ladden with tears?
How shall i hear the rushing wind of your voice
when my ears are deafened 
by the silence within?

How shall i ever fondle your face  again,
when my arms are withered by solitude?

At dawn...

Premium Member - Desert - So Far the Eye Can See -
Sahara the world's largest - the strictest and warmest desert 
It is an ocean without water - a place of fear blast knuckles on the desert floor 
Eight nomads on camels shrouded in white cloth - only the eyes are visible 
How can they find...

Premium Member Away, So Far Away, To Yesterday
Yesterday can never come again.
All my family were together then.
My memories are beckoning, and I want to be where
Troubles in that place I know as yesterday
Seemed to always melt away
So easily!
Far into my past -
Away, so far away, I wish to flee.

Now I face the...

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...

Why Do We Live So Far Apart?
Why do we have to live so far apart, when we want to be together?

We met not more than 3 days ago, but I already feel like 

I know you, very well. And  maybe not at all.

And well I must say you do know...

So Far Away From Day
The symphony has started
and the darkness does descend
the world succumbs to quietude
the day has reached its end

The nighttime woods are glittering
and offer up a show
a dazzling performance
by the fireflies, aglow

Along the breeze the crickets sound
that all is well tonight
as whippoorwills send out their songs
in blackness,...

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...

My Own Favourite Haiku - So Far
Haiku for frangipani in bloom:

nocturnal bouquet 
of frangipani in bloom –
olfactory fruits

teasing aromas
adorning a young girls hair – 
swaying moonlit palms

moths seeking nectar
flutter, flower to flower – 
new buds at sunrise....

The Love We Had Seemed So Far Away
i look to stars and wishes flew through space never to be heard again
fun to friends hearts do meld and break facing until time ends
this loop that plays and beats that syncopate become but a gem
pleasure a chest opened in surprise feeling no need to...

So Near, Yet So Far
Eventhough I knew from the very start
That thy love is given, but not to me;
Even if it will only break my heart
I am still hoping that someday you'll see.

When you say to her the words "I love you"
To me, I know those words you'll never...

The Journey So Far
When I am gone, you won’t have much to worry about

 

You won’t have much heart-stress to stress about

 

You won’t have much wishes of death for me

 

You won’t have much elimination plans of various versions

 

In fact, the world might be a better...

So Close Yet So Far
The first time our lips shared a kiss
Was even better than first time I shot a 3 pointer and didn’t miss.
I can’t help but smile when I picture your beautiful face,
Believe me when I say no one can ever take your place.
A piece of my...

My Love So Far
To my love that's far away
I think of you every night and day
And when i am alone
I watch the stars and wait for a sign
And when the brightest star appear
Then, I know you feel my lonely tears.

Days seem to be years
And minutes lead to hours
My...

So Far Away
I Stumble Upon My
Words – I’m
speechless
We were so far away
from each
other…I-I-I’m one
with
r-regret…f-feeling
incomplete…
I thought our love
was as worthless as
the debris…
You smoked me out
like a cigarette…and
y-you left me on the
filthy, messed-up
street…
I thought your kind
of “freedom” would
set us free…
From the rusty
chains, placed in
captivity…

I’ll find a way to
get you...
