Turnaway
I feel a distance so keenly
an apartness so clearly.
no longer the closeness we enjoyed
no longer the openess we employed.
Just drifting slowly apart.
i truly feel that in my heart.
slowly the intenseness calms down
obessession made me act like a clown.
A puppet on a string
is all i felt it brings.
so slowly do i back away
facing alone these summer days.
As i turn and walk from you
i need to tell you true
that i still do in my heart feel love
it will alway be there hovering above.
It's for both  you and me
that i do go and let it be.
but as i disappear from here
i'll still hold you dear.
with all my love and tender kisses
i'll leave you just unspent wishes.
a great big hug and tears for us
so please, don't make a fuss.
