Amazed
I am walking
I see you
Up ahead
Arms extended
Out to me
For your embrace.
I pick up my speed
And out of nowhere
An invisible wall
Takes me down.
I run into it
With a great thud
But I look up
And I can still see your
Face.
I pick myself up
And try again.
I walk slower
This time around.
You’re still there
Beckoning me
To come near.
I am desperate
To reach you.
To touch you.
To feel you.
To be enraptured
By you.
To give my full consent
To be imprisoned
By your grace.
I walk with fierce
Courage
Knowing that
I may be hit again
By another
Invisible wall
But that does not cease
My attempt
To try yet again.
I move
With agility
And quickened
Pace.
I’m so close now.
You’re almost
Within reach.
I’m running.
But as soon as
I'm within
Arm's length
I run into
Yet another
Glass wall...
I can never
See them coming
Whether I walk slowly
Or
With great haste.
And whenever
I get close enough
To feel your breath
Hear your voice
Or
See your silhouette
And I smell
The sweet scent
Of
Salvation...
That’s never even
The case.
I stumble
Around
In
Darkness
Searching
For A
Taste
Of
The past.
When we were
Happy.
When you
Smiled.
Now that I
Can no longer bear
The
Space
Between us;
It has become
Infinite.
I extend my
Grasp
For remnants
Of you...
But I am left
Without a
Trace.
