Across An Ocean Poem by Ronald Chapman

Eleven thousand kilometers apart,
A thousand years separating their Souls,
Lovers are waiting to hold each other in their arms,

Looking at dusk waiting for dawn,
As loneliness traps their hearts,
Remembering cold, snowy winters,

Holding each other tight, two Souls with one heart,
Dreaming of cherry blossoms,
Falling asleep in the springtime,

Can never forget to love.
Their hearts open to capture dreams,
From across a vast ocean of loneliness.

Dreams that leave them at the first light each day,
That leaves them,
With only emptiness and pain.

Living in this earthly place,
Unable to fly into each other's arms,
Two Souls are missing their lovers from across an ocean of time.
