Distance

The depth of the sea
does not compare to my love fore you.

The distance between us
wanes in the measurement of my devotion.

The stars tell me continually
you are near to my heart

Like your star,
I see you still,
Though distance has the upper hand.

I close my eyes
and see you.
You smile at me
You tell me of your live.

I sometimes fear to open my eyes,
to find it all a dream.

But I trust your words
I know you care
and will forever love me.
