The Heart Apart

A million miles away,

Yet the mind cannot bear to let you go,

Hearts entwined,

As spirits are fulfilled.

 

A thousand miles away,

A thirst,

A desire,

A yearn for you,

Grows stronger.

 

A hundred miles away,

The mind searches for your face,

A slight remembrance,

Of your features,

The strong contours of your face,

Powerful mouth,

And determined lips.

 

Ten miles away,

We grow further apart,

Bodies divided by an ocean,

Mind divided by guilt,

Hearts separated by lust.

 

Five miles away,

A spiritual divide,

An earthly separation,

A physical disintegration,

An emotional explosion,

Bursts into the flames of life,

The scent grows weary,

The image removed.

 

No longer miles apart,

The ocean melts away,

The time has come,

To end this torture,

We've finally reach the end of the path,

That once brought us together,

We must go our separate ways,

Discover ourselves,

And live our lives to the fullest of our happiness and joy.
