Far Away Here

Far Away Here

I see the air
I feel the light
I touch the sky
With you tonight

I walk on water
I breathe your skin
I dance on cliffs
Beginning to end

I hold you close
In a distant way
Like an orbiting planet
Or
A castaway

A quiet despair
A knowing fear
To let love in
Then disappear

I invent conversations
To feed my delusions
I dream of words
With no translations

I wish for love
On moonless nights
Dark is the color
Of my soul in flight
Warm is the thought
Of you tonight
