Poem: Smiling Mirage

So, this poem is a bit fantastical. Not to go into too much detail, but there's a fur I care for, and the random thought of "What if I went to meet her?" sprung up in my head.

Obviously that's a bit far-fetched, but I figured, exploring that would be a nice avenue for some poetry, before casting the thought aside. So, here's the outcome.


I'd walk across the desert sands, just to see your face

Cross all the miles, leave this god forsaken place

Make my way, across the road

To find a new home abode

In the end, all worthwhile

I just want to see your smile.

-

Take a step, hope it's right--

I don't want this to be a lonely night,

My pace, steady and slow--

My faith in you I'll show.

-

One foot forward, here I go

Down this path I wish I'd know

I'll make it there, eventually

Soon it will be just you and me.

-

So I walked across the desert sands, just to see your face

Crossed all the miles, left this god forsaken place

Made my way, across the road

Found a new home abode

In the end, all worthwhile

I finally got to see your smile.
