What Is A Mile To Love?
What is a mile to love?
A distance to the heart?
Oceans and mountains and skies full of stars
To unsundered souls sundered apart?
Like old songs said in days gone by
No mountain high, no valley low
They said that love could not be lost
But now we know, but now we know.
Lost but ever present still
Like ghosts that walk with timid step
Haunted hands that once sweetly caressed
That long to hold the hand that left.
The heart hears what the ear cannot
The heart hungers for love it may never be fed
The heart knows the truth when the mind is confused
The heart still lives on though the flesh has long fled.
There is no distance in the realm of love
It disdains every ending like it cherishes the start
From birth unto death with every longing and breath
The heart finds no home till it finds the right heart.
And though that place may seem far away
Past boundaries, borders and seashores and sea
It matters not to the heart that loves yours
Your heart will always be right here with me.
