Thinking Of Someone Across Rivers I’ve Only Dreamed About

 Have you ever had a feeling

that you just can’t let go

Have you ever had someone

you loved, and needed them to know

I’m trying to fight the emotions

not wanting to put too many things in motion

but these thoughts are causing a lot of commotion

I don’t know her, but I feel connected

and her words, the reflection of a beautiful soul

are never rested

I don’t know how she is, or why she is

but her words came to me for a reason

and I need to answer why

I’m writing drunk off rhymes

desperately giving off signs

from feelings cultivated by time

Have you ever had a feeling

that you just can’t let go

Have you ever had someone

you loved, and needed them to know

I don’t know how to approach

a blank face

and the time between us

a blank space

Do I put possibility ahead of reality

Or wishes ahead of rejection

And who are you

to stand in my reflection

If time is my correction, then I haven’t learned

if empty stares my guide, then I’ve spurned

what most would concede at defeat

I don’t know what keeps me up at night

I just hear the words, feel them whisper and tickle this spirit

I know it’s right

I know it’s right

and it’s crazy to fight for something you can’t see

but I know it’s right

Have you ever had the feeling

that you need to let her go

Have you ever had someone

you never knew, but were desperate to know?
