Too far away

Shadows of the night falling across the room
Whispering voices I do hear
Goths of pleasures past out there in the gloom
Bringing back memories of holding dear

Dear, yes I might say
Pictures creep into mind
But yet, it seems so far away
Afraid of what I might find

Finding you, there in the shadows I will
Cloaked under memories lurking in the dusk
Make my worry heart be still
Let descend the everlasting mask

Masking the feeling that once was mine
A Feeling now too far away
Making love again for all divine
There is nothing more that I can say

Uttering these words one more time
One more time I want to cross your way
Gentle desire is all within my mind
But you are too far away




The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools.

Helmut, our friend!  You've been away for much too long!  How are you doing with your art work?  We've another poet on the boards now, Titia...do a search and see some of the artwork that she has posted that her father has done.  They have reminded me of your work!

I do hope you're back to stay with us awhile; we have missed you so much!

Well, Helmut, I don't think I know you. You must have been gone since I've been here? I would love to see some art work of yours. I love this poem and hope to see much more of your work.....
