A few miles feels like we are oceans apart, Battling against a tide of cars and trains To reach your arms, Even when we are beneath the same quilt, It feels as if the rolling waves of creased bed sheets Separates us from being connected, I wait patiently, On the cliffs edge of a station platform, For the sails to catch the fume stained wind of another train engine, To be hurtled through fields that burn beneath the sun, Past speeding cars and clouds that drift peacefully Across the vast skies that echo adventure and longing, Only to reach the final destination of your safety.

A few miles feels like we are oceans apart, Battling against a tide of cars and trains To reach your arms, Even when we are beneath the same quilt, It feels as if the rolling waves of creased bed sheets Separates us from being connected, I wait patiently, On the cliffs edge of a station platform, For the sails to catch the fume stained wind of another train engine, To be hurtled through fields that burn beneath the sun, Past speeding cars and clouds that drift peacefully Across the vast skies that echo adventure and longing, Only to reach the final destination of your safety.
