How far away is far? We talk about distances and yet often don't put a meaning to them. For example, if a friend lives 1500 miles away in another state, it may seem like they're just as distant . . . more

Though miles away,
I can feel you near;
I breathe you in
like the scent of rain
as it lingers
after a spring shower.
Oh, my love
how can this be?
How can every fiber
of my being be so . . . more

I feel your strength
amidst your pain;
We will be fine,
though not the same.
This road we have traveled
has been so long,
This love we have shared
has been so strong.
You are with me always,
though . . . more

I see your reflection
in sun, moon, and stars,
in the foam crested ocean,
in the mountain's rippling stream.
I feel you in the warmth of summer,
in the harsh, cold kiss of winter,
in the crisp, . . . more

Remembering is easy;
Forgetting is impossible,
for wherever there is sunlight,
you are there,
reaching out to me as you did that day,
gently stroking my hair,
filling me with warmth;

Time is a thief that plays unfair;
I am here and you are there...
separated by miles, mountains
and endless flowing streams,
separated by longing
and neverending dreams;
Oh my love! . . . more

I close my eyes,
for I don't want to be here,
in this place,
receiving from you
what I do not want to receive;
I pretend
and go through the motions
for about the thousandth time,
wishing . . . more

My phone rang this morning at about eleven. I answered, as I always do: "This is David." Pause, pause, pause, click of faraway connection. Voice with cultured East Indian accent. . . . more

Originally, I was not going to publish this poem. It was too much for me to put out there. The problem was that I was keeping it all in me. I love my family. I don't hate his wife, I care for her a . . . more

I want to see you;
Take a train to where you are,
or drive the distance in my car,
take a plane before I go insane;
I just have to get to you.
I want to hold you,
wrap you in my arms, . . . more

If I could reach the stars,
I would give them to you;
If I could paint your heart,
it would never be blue:
I would dry every tear
from your eyes:
I would give you nothing
but sunny skies;
If I . . . more

Where have you gone?
You used to be right here,
Right here beside me
Where have you gone?
Now you're a thousand miles away.
Though I see you each day
You're so far away
I can't reach . . . more
