Close But Out Of Reach Poem by Dr Anthony Onoja

Yell if you can my friend
The train of time left so shiftly
Yes it hovers past you just today
When you left me waiting
Thinking I am some ghosty buddy
without a wing to fly off coast

Yes I flee past your shadow
Leaving behind the nights of
Terror and shame
When you pride yourself like
some Diana in little paradise
Someday you are border at heart

It's me you thinking but I'm not
there, I'm that still voice calling,
that gentle whisper that came loving
In little mountain where Miss Thatcher
got her Fame in shaddy friendship

I was that friend you took for a ride
I was that one that was ever
faithful to you even when your past
came haunting your joy
I was he you took so esteem low
whom you prefer to scored your lies

Watch me if you can in time
Fate have wings and they do fly aloft
Someday you will look for me within
Lost in the oceans of tommorow
Then I will be close but out of reach
