the other

April 23, 2004, 4:18 AM

the distance between
sends each to one side
short in reality
but so endless in the mind of either

he reaches out unseen
where the other one lied
too far to fathom
yet so close in the hearts of each other

what can be seen
in this endless rift
something exists
because the desire remains so

an endless bridge
that can't be walked upon
it seems impossible
but he tredges on carrying it inside

at once what has been
should be no longer
long in reality
since the wish is his alone

a single touch
could break it into something
only one is real
although that one is himself
