Miles to Go Before I Sleep
March 7, 2016
These woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
My woods are but a figure of speech.
Still, they are lovely, dark, and deep
And we have promises to keep.
The miles separate me from you.
Love and friendship stay through and through,
But a broken heart will stay true.
Your strong arms are wrapped around me,
Holding me close, helping me see.
We don't have to touch to feel.
