Your eyes won't let my thoughts go back to sleep. Your words draw me across 2000 miles. I don't know you at all, and yet I know You better than my friends of many years. The days I spent with you are like a tape I play, rewind, play, rewind, and play. Whenever I remember something new, I feel as though you touched me on the cheek. I miss you as the grass awaits the wind, Or as the morning sky awaits the sun. Although I look for you in every doorway, I find only the darkness in my heart.
