A World Apart
There are differences
More than mere skin and thought
We live in places
Only the other has seen in the dark
Connections are clear
The attractions are simple
Based deeper than either
Could ever admit
Time is not that gentle
The sun is a jealous lover
Always hiding one from the other
But from the mind jealousy cannot control
The thoughts belong to no one
But the one whose mind in which they are caged
Thoughts transcend moments
And move across time without hesitate
No words ever spoken
Mere emotions shared across voids
Words never spoken
Infinite images enjoyed
No matter the sun
No matter the time or space
The mind is a device to convey
Between two emotions
A world apart
“The sun is a jealous lover / Always hiding one from the other” my favorite line. very true post.

Ronovan,
I love this, its beautiful. And my poems ‘write themselves’ too – so awesome that you say that!
