WORLDS APART
By: Dee Dee  Derek S Ward    ward36345@gmail.com

To the ends of the earth I have searched for you, and have longed to see your face
I recall each day before you went away, and left without a trace

From then my soul and inner-self, took flight to who knows where
Yet relentless my quest, that I wouldn’t let rest, though it seemed like you didn’t care

It troubled my mind not to have you here, when each day gave way to night
When wrapped in my arms with your amorous charms, was more perfect that the morning light

Yet now I know that your love for me, never really went astray
And it is now so clear, that though you are near, you are ever so far away

But now it’s too late to ask for your hand, yet always I will be your host
And although I am sure, that your spirit is pure, I could never propose to a ghost
