DON'T GO FAR AWAY!

Don’t go far away,
For I cannot bring you back in pieces;
Go near, not  much, not very much
But here, near, like in the pocket
On my chest, near my heart.

 Don’t go far away,
For I have seen
What distance brings,
Separation or the sea
A thousand Grand Canyons in our name.

 Don’t go far away,
For I may wander again,
In search of you in vain.
Like a mad storm in the sea
In search of you in pain.

Don't go far away,
For I cannot lose you again.
When you are not there
I have seen what I have done to myself, 
I cannot put myself in place.
