Here are a few more poems about being alone when I know so well that my lover, my true love above all else in my world, is so close away. Two and one half thousand miles. Too far too walk, but never too far to dream.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You are my absolute and everything
You are my soon to be
You light a fire deep inside
The darkness inside me
And light the way to better days
That take me from this life
You are my only saving grace
To save me from disgrace

And as my pulse is slowing still
I see the red moon come
I look into your hazel eyes
And see the crimson sun

Red moon, red moon high above
Your crimson face aglow
You have seen my love to her
Now to the world let show
The blood that spilled when I could not
A life without her lead
I let my soul go back to Hell
From which we all proceed

I love her still, my soul inside
The crimson moon in sight
I whisper secret longing words
I will love her til I die
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Living without you
Open to attack
Vicarious, I live through you
Everything grows black

Is it right to run away
Sorrow in my wake

Every morning waking still
Nowhere left to run
One more day of hiding here
Underneath the desert sun
Growing tired
Hungry still, for things I used to know

Love is Enough to feed my tongue
As the sun begins to snow
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am isolated here
The darkness comes from all sides
My throat, crushed away, screams
Cries for the unseen eyes
My death is watched by a million faces
And mourned by none
Without you here to guide me
The abyss and I are one
