Across


Across these miles i wish you well,
May nothing haunt your heart but sleep,
May you not sense what i don't tell,
May you not dream, or doubt, or weep.
May what my pen this peaceless day,
Writes on this page not reach your view,
Till its deferred print lets you say,
It speaks to someone else than you.

Took me back to my childhood.. when home was the safest place in the world and the world was as safe as home.

Is it an original piece?

Really well written. Guess the sensitivity comes from being gay. Don't think a straight man would be half as sensitive.

Hoping to see a new post soon...
