So Far, Yet So Close

A real star with a fiery heart,

Words like flame that rip apart,

All the shields of this fallen heart,

Your words hang around,

Unsung songs and more art.

I can feel you,

Like the smell of crushed cloves,

I can touch you 

So far 

Yet so close.

You are the sun,

Between the sky and the sea,

All the way wild and free,

Behind the vessel of clouds,

You make rainbows 

No matter what it be.

You are a shoulder,

I'd lean on without fear.

I can feel you,

Though you aren't here.

But, for time and situations

Can't bring us near,

I can still feel you,

Like the smell of crushed cloves,

I can touch you 

So far 

Yet so close.
