The Inescapable Chasm
This endless hole that lies between us
The magic of the day
Is lost on me
Its glorious perfection
How I love the day
Yet I am cursed
Never to see it
There is a wall of glass between us
I can catch a glimpse
But we can never occupy
The same space at the same time
Except a few times when we intersect
For I am the trunk
And you are my key
Forever separated
For I am the silver Moon and
You are the golden sun
I am the night
And you are the day
Our love forever cursed
Yet I cannot stay away

© Angel V., Tecumseh, MI
