insomnia

these sleepless nights are spent with you
hours on my back
re-living the memeories i have
the things that have no doubt passed from your mind
but still ring like a piercing bell in my head
how far we have traveled together.....
snow covered east rock
the waterfall run in spring time
hyde park
the blue mosque
mount vitosha
around the world and back again
and now i make that journey over and over
telling and re-telling these stories each night
but i am alone
for i could not catch your love
to the ends of the earth i searched for a way
to somehow give you something for which to love me
but the secret to love lies not in far off places
and foreign destinations hold no hidden key to the heart of a woman
like a snowflake that melts before touching your hand
so is your love to me
though i flail and grope across all the winter sky
i only return with wet hands
it is hopeless
never will i find your love
never will i be whole
