It's Not Too Far
A heartbeat away
doesn’t sound so far.
I could get there by car
If one hit me today.
Or perhaps in a dream
Of a dear departed friend
But all dreams eventually end
No matter how real they seem.
There are no shortcuts.
Getting there takes a lifetime
of searching for the reason or rhyme
Without going nuts.
Some go only to return
To tell of where they've been
and the wonders they've seen
And what they did learn.
We get closer with each passing day
To that place of which we are unaware
Perhaps we will meet again there
Just a heartbeat away.
