So Far Away

© Brodiss 2002

So far away
It could be another world
Another reality
Time drags heavy on my soul
As I realise you are gone
Forever
Out of reach

So far away
Writing poems won't make you return
They only make me want to burn
Away this hollow existence
Such sorrow
Oh such sorrow
Proves to be a most volatile fuel
Leaving nothing but cold ashes

Is there a point to anything
Anymore?

I would ask you if I could
But you're gone
So far away
And I know I'll not see you again
The ashes are bitter in my mouth
As I bid you farewell
Knowing
There is no point to anything
And never will be again
