Back And Forth by ayd91(op): 7:42am On Nov 18, 2012
from the hilltop i watch you,
walking,
smiling with eloquent radiance,
you waving
and I!
I too helpless to move,
my arms frozen solid as i watch,
bearing the weight of four full moons,
the further you go,
the longer the minutes last,
minutes become hours,
hours become days,
days become weeks,
i can't miss you,
missing is too hard,
i can't forget you,
my mind is filled with memories of you,
i can't think of your arrival,
your arrival leaves me with memories of your last departure,
once again I am left to wait,
time is unforgiving,
distance its faithful ally,
still i wouldn't have it any other way,
your absence reveals your importance
