Distance

I am held by murky waters,

And all these earthly things,

Desire, pride to name a few,

And sometimes even shame

I am blinded by the sun

As I yearn for more

You watch me from your golden sands

As you wait on calmer shores

An ocean lies between us

  Moving much too fast

  But somehow all too slow
