A Distant Love
We'll never feel the warmth of love's embrace
Chilled ripples on the skin from it's caress
Experience first hand that sweetest taste
Or kiss away sad tears of loneliness
To love her means I'll die a thousand deaths
Each thought, each dream, a poniard through my heart
Then say, "I love you," with each dying breath
A Shakespeare tragedy played out in parts
Yet love is unrestrained by boundaries
It lives and grows inside the heart and mind
The feeling that removes all quandaries
True love is still the strongest tie that binds
Regardless of the miles we are apart
The love we share connects from heart to heart
