Desolate Nights | Poetry ➳

Lxvii. long distance

꩜

Darling, how does it feel?
to wander around in the clear blue sky
with the sun sizzling between the clouds..

How does it feel to be close
to the ocean?
do the waves wash away your worries?
or does it make your wounds open and sting?

Darling, how does it feel when the birds sing their cheery song
as you walk past the spring trees? and
A flock of lively birds flying away to the dawn.

Do my thoughts crown your head like the wild bees?
the days are cold and the nights
are long and colder
these unswerving mountains hovering
up to the dead night sky.

I see no lights and I hear no birds
only the whispers of the unsteady
cool breeze.
The mighty moon peeking through
the hanging clouds,
shying away in the shadows.

Dear, here I lay in the twilight like
the dead rose
your thoughts howling in my ears keeping me up night long.
Blood and tears gushing from my heart

I spoke,

"will I ever get a chance to see him one time?"
