So Far Away

 

~My love so far away is she

to live without her cannot be~

~My heart is aching alone I stay

my mind in wander I’ve lost my way~

~I cannot be her not with me

to do so is insanity~

~My nights are cold as is my bed

my thoughts are her within my head~

~I cannot sleep awake I stay

long the nights ‘til light of day~

~I look my side I see her not

so bare it is my lover’s spot~

~Deep within my soul it burns

in prayer I stay for her return~

~Each breath I take and drop of blood

I’d willingly give to keep her love~

~She is the light that makes me see

without her darkness begrieving me~

~She is my reasoning she is my strength

her soul is warm her heart in length~

~For now she’s gone I know not why

within me pain in secret I cry~

~Loneliness overwhelming I cannot bare

apart my heart many pieces a tear~

~A must to mend healed by love

to be with her in wanting of~ 

~To feel her touch so soft it is

a feeling of such I so do miss~

~The warmth of her body next to me

reminiscent a memory so Heavenly~

~Continue I will to God I’ll pray

for her return to me one day~
