To Love Her From Afar

To say I missed her wouldn’t quite compareTo how it felt to Love her from afar‘Tis but to call a purple diamond rareOr say the sun is but a faded star

For every night I see her in my sleepWhere dreams can turn the darkness into lightAnd bring to life the memories we keepHidden in the secrets of the night

And every morning since that I’ve awakenSlowly to the sound of breaking dayI find the pillow next to me forsakenWhere once a piece of heaven used to lay

And if my rhymes could touch her distant heartWith tender words repeated from afarI’d swim the oceans keeping us apartAnd kiss her lips beneath the brightest star
