So close, but so far
December 1, 2013
A desire far away from being clutched,
Like an epic journey,
So close to be held,
To have a closer look,
Yet still far away from my hands to touch,
© Erica D., Boaz, AL

“When it's over, I want to say: all my life<br /> I was a bride married to amazement.<br /> I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms. <br /> <br /> When it is over, I don't want to wonder<br /> if I have made of my life something particular, and real.<br /> I don't want to find myself sighing and frightened,<br /> or full of argument. <br /> <br /> I don't want to end up simply having visited this world.”
