So Far Away

I’ve been wandering about
Pretending to do

Everything

Everything except 

missing you

I walk,

 I run,

I close my eyes

And speak to the sun

It searches my skin

Detects no rain

I smile

It won’t find

my hidden pain

I’ve been selling time

At a discount rate

It just doesn't seem

Worth its weight

Without the gold

Silver linings

Hanging off the clouds

Like broken thread

I can’t sew

So I’m pulling on them, instead

I've been hanging around

Pretending to stay

When really

I'm so very, very far away

So far away

 from everything

Everything

Except needing you
