Distances I

If I were a painter
I'd paint you
With the colors of love
If you were near
I'd hold your hand in mine

I'm but a simpleton
All I can do is close my eyes
And picture you
Standing close by

Memories flood the heart and soul
Your smile
Your words
Your touch
You nearby

If I were the breeze
I'd travel across oceans and hills
To reach you for just a little while

If I were the earth
Distances would never be given
A second thought

All I am is a simpleton
All I can do is close my eyes
And smile
As your thought crosses my mind.
