Love From Afar

Time heals all wounds

Or so they would have me believe

Salt has been poured in mine

My heart is marooned

And I grieve

I'm far from fine

There are more fish in the sea

I hear that a lot

But I don't really listen

I want to be

Left to rot

Without supervision

She's in heaven watching over you

Say the religious

But it doesn't work on me

There's nothing I can do

The emptiness is prodigious

And stretching for an eternity

I'm afraid to die

In case I don't go

To where you are

I question the why

But all I know

Is that I love you from afar
