The Distances
Reminicising the dusky vistas of blissful hues,
Sat rocking, beneath a pall of december dew,
About your motley motifs, as I was musing
This serenade has flushed out of moorings
No complaints with the passing secluded dawns
But along with you this lifes life is gone
The gloomy darkness of a moon marooned night
Spated my life, as your smile deserted my sight
Tears in my heart never stopped to brew
From the moment you bade me adieu
A shimmering crescent in this melancholic life
Your memory is the only palliative to my grief
My unknown inhibition and imagined fear
Bridled me from enshrining thy elysian ardour
The stony want to distance from the earnest likes
A hidden paranoia in me tossed you alike
when one sanguine morn opened my mind's door
You had alreadysailed off to a far away shore
Now to trudge "the distances" is at best.,
Like waiting for the dawn facing west.
