For love I'd like to think I would journey as far as needed for a chance to make it right. |
-A Thousand Miles For You- by Keaton Foster Upon stones Upon road In the dirt In the dust Through cities Across endless forest Down desolate paths Places and directions Where few dare go Into the blackness Into an expansiveness A voyage such as this To all else seems mad My feet are bleeding This heart is screaming These lungs heave I’m so damn tired Most darker days I’m not sure That I’ll make it My faith is weak My fate is weaker I’ve done So many bad things I just want this To be my one Good thing A thousand miles For you Day Night Twilight I continue to walk Moving on As pieces of me Remain behind I cannot change I can only ever hope To at least try When I get to you When I hold you close Never again Will I dare let go I’ll love you Just as I always have I just hope You’ll love me more And that my journey This pilgrimage home Is enough To get you to see That for what I’ve done I’m truly sorry A thousand miles For you Seems quite far But in fact The distance is short The journey has been hell But I want to make it Because I just have to It’s the only way The only hope I have to hold you And this time I’ll never let go… A Thousand Miles For You Written by Keaton Foster Copyright © 2015. |
