Of Ignorance and Distance

Try the oceans that you keep

No more crying, not a peep

'Neath my nose I do not seek

And see the child, as she weep


Lay too far, beyond my reach

Past window sill and starry reef

Past the mountains touch rocky heaven

I cannot wait to see you again


Time to lay your head

Upon my shoulder, still

A peace to follow, as need be

Created by strong will


As days cut short fade into night

A dreamless, sleepless, starry fright

The silence of suffering beauty be kept alight

Days pass, sun rises, moon cycles and nightmares


Words flow from pen to paper

Yet you don't even know

The kind of trouble I'm in

From your bright and fervent glow
