Minds eye senses the tides are changing,
Something looms on the horizon of possibility.
Rising waters of tepid allure,
Flooding the world deeper in confusion.
Standing at a crossroads with hundreds of paths;
Straining to see which will take me to my goal.
Every path shrouded in hazes of unknown,
But it is for my choices that I will be known.
Closing my eyes and focusing on my goal
Blindly down a path I go.
I'll follow it down to the bitter end,
Because I know thats where I need to be.
Missing her is confusing.
I really miss her touch.
Now I'm lost in confusion,
Why does god deem us need this time apart?
Author notes
So I met a fantastic woman... and now we are a world apart. But the month we had when we found each other was amazing. I was sitting here thinking of her when I stumbled across this contest and it seemed appropriate. It's going to be a lot of work to see each other again, but dammit we're gonna make it happen. Thanks for inspiring me to write this, was clarifying for myself at the same time.

Thank you sooo much for this entry... I'm glad it helped you as well. As life would have it, my heart belongs to someone in another state... so I can really relate to this. Thank you again, and good luck.

I feel I'm here everyday, and I try to listen to Him for guidance, but I always get in the way, if you know what I mean. This is a nice, deep poem, which I can relate well to. You've done a great job! -
Superb
