Around This Time

 

Pained voice over the phone
Piercing my heart
Wounding my soul
Struggling against right
Longing for wrong
Endeavoring forth
Into the storm.
With hours between us
And so many days
We are still swimming together
Yet floating away.
Were once we beheld
All that we were,
So far apart
Alone we yearn.
My beloved and I
Remain forever Torn
