Off In the Distance 
Category: Writing and Poetry 

The trail wound off in the distance
Canopy of trees embraced us
I didn't share all my love
Manufactured warmth
Phony bastard I am
But oh the rays of the sun
The minutes ticked away
I walked alone
Ahead of you
What were you thinking
What could we have talked of
My love
Why did I not shower you with kisses
I am lonely now
By myself
And no well meaning advice by my friends (Hint!!!)
Will make me change
Rearrange
What times we've had
The joys we shared
Over the years
We were younger then
Two young lovers
With hope and dreams for the future
The world looked like gold and shiny castles
Light rain gently fell and carressed your eyes
I quenched your every thirst
You touched the deepest places of my heart
And now, as I look into your eyes
I see you've grown tired of me
My tricks, my lies
My cold hard eyes
My selfish ways
Heart gone for days
Empty vessel
Lights are on but nobody's home
To be here but not present
I am spent upon the lusts of my foregone mind
The devil never gave me that girl's behind
And so I am worse than any other
Without a lover
Not two
One
