The Closer I Get to You, the Further I Try to Escape
Written on Sep 18, 2024
The more I attempt to flee,
The nearer you seem to draw.
The harder I try to turn away,
The more clearly I perceive you.
I feel like a solitary isle,
Enveloped by enchanting tides;
Wherever I wander,
I remain tethered to you.
Endless reflections
Reveal your likeness,
I commence with you,
And conclude with you.
Writing serves as a form of reverence for me; it requires the heart's engagement.
Thank you to my cherished friends and fellow poets for your sincere encouragement and support.
Keep me in your thoughts.
Send positive energy my way.
I hope for your kindness and support.
Let our poems serve as reflections.
