Never far💟
I see you in the sunrise
When the stars fade
and the sky slowly
fills the universe with light
I see you in the morning haze
When the birds make their first call
And the moon disappears
From so close yet so far
I see you in the clouds
So perfectly lush
So beautifully shaped
So peacefully free
From so close yet so far
I see you in daylight
I feel you in the sun
The rays tracing my skin
Warming my shivers
From so close yet so far
I see you high above the trees
Shading the sun at its highest peak
At the time when moments
Turn into years
Oh how I reach for your soothing touch
I trace a heart in the scalding heat
And then there you are
From so close yet so far
I see you in the sunset
And watch your colors finally
Paint the sky with my love for you
Outlining the houses and buildings
Enlightening the city
From so close yet so far
I see you in the moonlight
So bright yet so calming
Willing me a restful sleep
Full of nothing but your love
From so close, and never far
Every day,
I am filled with you
Sometimes you bring me
Longing and wistfulness
Other days you bring me
Just pure joy and hope
Because one day,
I will reach you
And together we will be
Painted sunsets
Softened moonlights
Warming daylights
Fading stars at the midst of rise
And a wonderful morning haze
Forever close and never far💟
