Can't be here and there
Not if we don't try
Can't even correlate time
Not now can anything be together
Whilst you hold that thought
You lost me before you let me in
So you can't carry my weight anymore
Or choose to spend your strength elsewhere
So sure for self security
That you can't counterbalance love
But can't hold distance practically
Needs nurture and patience
So if this future you speak of
Has any hope for us
It needs to be wanted
Needs to know it's worth waiting for
And to accomplish compromise
But whilst your mind's yours
I can't make a non-believer believe

Each on a lone adventure
Their holidays collided then combined
So shared special self-made memories
And as fate became their destination
Their destiny took the challenge of distance

He ambled along his adventure
And she journeyed her way home
But the tingling of their meeting lingered
And their shared smiles shadowed their thoughts
Now love was stretched, but strengthened by distance

So when he had more time on her side
They were both soon willing to give it a try
Soon sinking so deeply in love
It was now their connection thrived
Only he was at a distance

Then they shared almighty adventure
Together their traveling passion took them afar
So far, for him this time she stretched out
And in his land they rested
Love had taken them the distance

Encountering an exciting diversion
They were soon gifted with new life
And with this charming commitment
Came a decision of destination
Whose pathway would take the distance?

Back upon the other side they settled
But this time it was to become theirs
And once harbored in a happy home
Their lives expanded and more family was grown
Now with no worries of distance

So for her he did relocate
And for him her family she gave
But he need not move on or away
For as their relationship has shown
Love knows no distance

With a whiskey warm face
I hope to conquer cold
But it beat me
And winter took its' toll
So here I shiver
With hot toddy in my hold
Slowly getting drunker
It's chilly
But I feel bold

I want it but I can't, shouldn't, won't
I need it but it's gone, lost, off
I must have it now but something stops me
Stops me, blocks me, lost me
I am stopped
It is off
Over
Full stop
​

We're all going on a summer holiday
But nowhere near hot sun
Somewhere so priced high
We've bags stacked with snacks
And dutys full limit of ***
There's Norway we can afjord this otherwise
​
​

Sun's up yet still not out of bed
Not till tonight will I rise
For nocturnal living took its' toll
And I find myself not living in the day
And not knowing a life of sleep
No not today will I wake in time for light
I'm not now able to realign my wake pattern
When day turns to night I start earning
And when dark turns light I go to sleep
So now I not know on which day I wake
But I need not know
For each nights work is same routine
​

Have you heard her?
No sound of silence here
Her hiss lost me miles ago
Miles ago across the ocean
Since sounds mouth masked her
He hums and hoons above
Her serenity stolen
And replaced with raucous activity
On rims edge of a row
Silence doesn't get a sound in
And we are pondering pleasantries
So to keep things at peace
