Between Us

Between our souls lays a trench so deep

I look to the abyss, sigh and ease,

Over our interactions a bridge we reap

Joyful thoughts and excitement seize;

But why then are you holding a mask to tease

Holding your beauty inside over which I contemplate;

Let go of the fear, let it disperse in the breeze

I want to understand you, might not we resonate;

A famine in my heart, soul and eyes

The sight of you, exempt me of troubles;

On your side, abundance lies

I step on the bridge and fling these rubbles.

  This is my story, a cry from a stoic's heart,

  "I'll sit as close as I can, even if you push me miles apart."
