Far Away

 The world seems so quiet around,

Even the birds in this autumn are quiet.

I have an apology to make to a friend

But he is in his home, far away.

I have a song to tell my mate,

he wanted us to make a band

And look how it comes to be -

I am though at my home, and he lives far away.

I have a confession, not to my love

But my soulmate,

but I stagger at the laugh through the phone

We are at our homes, far away.

Oh dear, I feel, I should have had chosen people close

but look how even the close ones drift,

for me, I stutter as I ask them to stop

We are in our worlds, sleeping, far away…
