Distant Requiem

By Jewel

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

To say love is all we needevokes strange desiresis love all we have? is love all we want?your fantasy rings so trueall my fate calls your nameThat day was a mystery, a treasure, a priceI'm here now, needing more.casting my heart to the heavensan angel appears much higherhigh above our world, 'I dreamt he'd take me out of herebut now, I'm left in fear.'just as the shout reaches sky,falling rain becomes frozen,airy distance sings a requiemour earth pauses in motion...drifting towards light.
