Out of Reach

Clouds condemn the sky line   fear has taken root   Im drowning in the vineyards   but can't see thru the soot   these grounds have become uneven   there doesn't seem to be anyone around   come harbour these rains before me   before they wash me six feet down   I beg for your sun to save me   as you tiptoe upon your beach   if I hold my hand out here for you   would it still be out of reach

I am captured by the images so skillfully developed by the author and the passion of the words move me. This is a deep piece and it struggles with the feeling of helplessness and uncertainty. Emile.

Anyone wanting to be found, is never out reach. Drowning in love, begging for such warmth. This is so beautiful and romantic. Your thoughts are simply breathtaking. ~ Brandy
