there's a canyon now
between you and i
and it tears me inside
to know that it was my storms
that carved it
there aren't enough words
not enough rain
to wash away the hurt
i caused you
my apology weighed
in the balances
and found wanting,
i yearn to close the
gap between our two hearts
long to make them
one once again
my anger flooded over you
and in one simple sentance
wore away at us
until no bridge could
hold under us
it left us tumbling
and hanging from opposite sides
of this canyon wall
and nothing i can say or do
no matter the amount of love
i rain down on you
we are still apart tonight
and as i try and fail to see you
from the other side of this lonely moon
and i yearn to close this
empty, aching gap between
our two hearts
and make us
one again
tonight
