Although we're together again
I feel so far away
I miss having you here
I wish you would stay...

You're love is a medicine
It takes away all my pain
But I don't know if I can say
That you will love me for one more day
Colm Jan 2020
From a distant place
Your echo reaches me here
At this length
Like a drum in my ears
Your memory kiss reverberates
And shakes my very soul of souls
Creating in me a sound of old
Which slowly fades
And with anticipation
Waits
To hear the breath of all which once was told
Next yours my present face

There is but one heart
Between these two lighthouses
When the seas connects
And with both lightning and bliss
They reach each other feeling
Lights from distant shores do reach

My life is spent stacking bricks
Spreading mortar
Row by row
Piece by piece
Until I can no longer see the world beyond
The row turning to a wall
A wall turning into a cage
Rising past my eyes
Still not high enough to close me in but too high to turn back
Beyond my reach to begin to dismantle
So I continue to toil
Laying the last brick into my roof
Blocking the last star from shining on my face as I look to the night sky
Irreversible darkness descends
My heart is shut

The human experience
is one that is a complex journey.
We must search for it.
Looking high and low,
near and far,
in the distant past,
in the ever-nearing future.
We never stop looking

His eyes were thick
with unadulterated love
and His arms were a place
that warmth never left.
He is.
yet i could not
call Him
mine.
to want something you will never have

when will we break through the mirror?

why can you see the parts that be that I did not even know were me?

will we turn our backs against the wall and hold on so we do not fall?

I cannot look at you for a long time
I avoid the recognition of your eyes
me in you and you in I
a distant air
a broken rhyme

I know who you are.

Sing o gales of light
Sing!
Tell the intrepid what they bring.
See o larks of love see!
Tell one another they need one another
To me
Ever so lonely.

navy crystal skies,
hidden dreamy paradise

life fades away
as i await the sun to rise

when the light touches
the boundless evergreen

i am filled with contentment,
happiness i've never seen

We're all in life's long race,
Pondering on a distant place,
Where we are spiritual beings,
Our souls free beyond dreaming,
No, we can't take stuff beyond,
Immaterial thoughts to wonder on,
Do you believe in the afterlife?
Why wait for peace, no strife?
If we all had a Peace day today,
The world could unite this way,
A distant place, how far away?
