Too much time to think
such as finger-smudged ink
melts the words of our mind
until its an impossible find
The parting of two souls
together form a whole
in realization is lent
with a night apart spent
But what of many days
when thoughts become strays
and they cry alone cold
lost without a soft hold
Time feels at a standstill
like an illusory hill
that you can never pass
a cruel barrier of glass
These new reflections bend
old worries that did mend
becoming unraveled in ache
and a thirst without slake
Sleep helps bridge the distance
a quick break of the trance
that has threatened our hearts
with a deep sorrow
Breathe deeply my dear
and don't let that fear
of the storm and thunder
keep you from tomorrow

So, before hanging up tonight I told her that I would go to sleep as well... despite the time difference. I've already sort of adjusted to the three hour difference.
We talked of what we would do upon my return,
of our dreams and our homesickness... for our home is wherever the other dwells.
Anyway... I better head to sleep. It's just a few more days until I am back with my home.

I loved the structure of this one! Though I was sort of a bit disappointed when the last two stanzas didn't quite match the rest. But only momentarily, I promise. The rhythm was excellent, and the imagery a pleasure to have slip through my mind as I read it through.
