If wanting
could make it true,
If wishing
could bring it to pass
Then by her side,
I would be.
But I am
here and she is there,
And like
East and West
Never the
twain to meet.
We had hoped
that if she went west enough
And I went
east enough
We could
meet in the middle,
But she
cannot leave her part of the world
And I no
longer will leave mine.
So, like to
sides of the same coin
We stare in
out in our own direction
Unable to
see
The other’s
way.
Love burns
in our hearts, but not enough
To overcome
the difference from here and there.
Therein lies
our great divide.
