You used to lie right next to me
So close
But now you’re far and gone

I used to think our souls were tied
So tight
But now I think they’re torn

Feels like the better parts of me. Are,
Distant;
Hardly speak to my peers. Too,
Distant;
Chase of love and someone. Feels,
Distant;
Inspiration to keep writing. Is,
Distant;
Hopes for self and the future. All,
Distant;
My faith in God nowadays. Really,
Distant;
My belief in desires fulfilled. Only,
Distant;
All those promises. Basically,
Distant;
Money I truly need. Always,
Distant;
And all that makes me happy. Is,
Distant;

Living life from such a distance

Just like the moon controls the tide,
You captured my eye.
Pale green eyes lighting up my night sky.

It was as if two separated souls recognized each other from other lives.
The soft relief of finally finding each other again.
A feeling only the astral plane could understand.

Now, I think of you in everything I do.
I even see your face in the moon.

But like the moon, you’ve grown distant.
You can’t communicate.
You just sit there, watching and observing.
All while feeling so much.
While leaving me with silence.

I wish you would let me close to you again.
I don’t want to hurt you.
But I wish you gave me the chance to tell you.
