Far Away Poem by Lesa MRK

Through the darkness I have searched,
For the man within my heart.
Everyday he seems farther away-
Why must we be apart?
Once I thought he loved me,
His smile stopped the rain.
When my heart was touched with sadness,
His laughter eased my pain.
Now I remain all alone-
Loneliness is my only friend.
Tell me what it was,
That made it end.
He was to be my future.
His words would guide me through.
His praise would heal my fear.
Everything would be bright and new.
Will he not listen,
To the promises so true?
If he'd hold back nothing,
There would be nothing we could not do.
Now I see him from a distance,
So close, yet so far away.
Can he not feel the power,
Of the feelings I keep at bay?
