The furthest distance of all
Is never measured by mile.
Instead, it's measured by the space
'Twixt me and her beautiful smile.

Her deep, mysterious eyes
Can't meet up with mine.
Are they full of lies?
No, I'm sure they're fine.

Whats there, I do not know.
What's there, I do not ask.
But God, Oh God, I sure do wonder
What's under that wonderful mask.

In dreams, I scream.
In dreams, I shout.
I'll help you get through it, I promise...
But now, I'm just missing out.


Written: 10/15/02
Dedication: To a friend who was hiding from truth.

Peace and Love,

Somebody just called and said that you aren't missing much. Just kidding (I cant help it).  It was good poem, very well written.

Do you speak French?

Sorry, that was mostly irrelevant. I loved the poem. Again.
