Distance Strikes.

To the left I trace a silhouette,

Your heart once beat to keep the rythym.

And this song plays so far from in tune,

As distance strikes me across my heart.

A window to an unruly world,

And my memories as smooth as your skin,

My lungs fill with oxygen,

Though I tremble as Heavens poison me,

Hot and sweet, traveling down my throat,

and 'Miss you' Is all I wrote,

A kiss waiting on my reddened lips,

Our forever dressed in pure disguise,

Only sleep can sane me.
