[hometext] => this is actually a song - so it mgiht read a little quirky.....
[bodytext] => Was it youth that left me far behind Standing in a long line Waiting for another reason to stay here When the winter wind blows so hard Against my heart aching for what’s lost Miles away and so far down on my luck I tried to look at you but couldn’t see my way clear To reach out for what I wanted Is it sunlight that took off without a goodbye Leaving me bleeding in the dark Sleeping too much without resting Dreaming the same dream Your face before me Miles away and so far down on my luck I walked so far but couldn’t find you Sitting right beside me Your words keep me company in hours Stretching out like endless arms Holding me back from the edge of leaving Everything I’m sure of Behind closed doors we pray for more time Are you standing in the window thinking About a kiss we shared in another time Locked up in reverie and sinking Somewhere in discontent we settle Not wanting forgiveness Miles away and so far down on my luck I’ve stopped trying to dream Closing my eyes against the longing Can you keep the soul inside warm enough To survive the storms swirling around Wait for me at your favorite spot I’ll find you when the smoke clears And nothing can keep us apart [comments] => 1 [counter] => 248 [topic] => 2 [informant] => merry [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )
