Love Long Distance

I can see you from here, smiling. Happy and free like a bird of royalty. Though I do cry behind my mask, For my own pain is my very own cage. Hope is the thing devoid of feathers, I have not seen it because I could not. Living in this burned house, the forest Has shunned my heart of destruction. Miles away, beyond seas, and over mountains. My only desire was to forever wait, Celibate in my purest heart, making love To my solemn memories of your body. Falling in love again, and again with your words.
