The Distance

Over the landscape

In the tropical green forest

In a distant land so faraway

From me to you a wide golf fixes

The distance is what I don’t want

I always want to get near to you

I don’t want to be a lover faraway wide apart

From you my heart is attached to you

Just as the leaf are gulled to the branches

Go far apart makes the leaf to die

This distance is over-killing and eaten me up

I really want to be near to you

For love, companionship and intimacy

That’s what I mean I want the distance close

Closing the gaps that is so wide and stretched out

I want to wake up beside you

I want to go out and return to you

I want to be so into you that is only you

That takes the center stage of my heart

 To dwell with you in love and sincerity

The distance is eaten me up

I wish I rather be close to you

Where you are but the step were we are so high so far

Dear please don’t look at it am so nagging and demanding

Just one this plea only heaven knows that you are my life

So here we stand

In this hallow spot

In face with you looking into my eyes

I long for more of you not in sex

But to fill that belong-ness close to you

Holding you in my hands

Bearing and sharing the challenges facing us

Walking side by side in the street, shopping mall

Just to be with you after a long hard day at work

Can’t you see am so stuck and sick of the distance

…am sorry if am asking so much, please
