CLOSE YET SO FAR
Home sweet home, where our feet may leave but not our hearts.
You're my home
Am not yours
Your smile lights up the place
Dimmed by the fact that it's not my shine
But am distraught to let it go anyway!!

Absence makes the heart fonder
every morning I miss you more, no wonder
handshakes, high-fives we share
Hugs and kisses desired
Desire claws at me, irrational
Rationality like a bucket of cold water, wakes me.

Love is a friendship set afire, they say
is ours?
it's a flickering candle at best
I'm happy to see you,
I'm sad to see you
Not have you, not to be had😊

You're here but not here with me
You see my way but see through me
Hear the words but not their meaning
You do things but do not know the implications
Close yet, Soo far away.
