How far will you go?

How far will you go?

A Poem by Gerry Legister
"

How long will it take before the tears starts to flow

"

This time, leaving from here
I watched you go into the distance
I needed power for this hour
To stop the pain piecing like an arrow
I wish you did not have to go
And leave reflections in a trance
after saying goodbye; how far will you go?
Before the tears start to flow

I really want to know 
Where you are going tonight?
In another a light, just as bright
How far will you go? Do you think it’s safe?
How far will you go? And never let go
Of this life, on this road, trying to escape
Do you know, I have been far away too
In the miles, separate by that same place
Tonight, hope, brings me closer to your face.

Just one wish, only a breath is enough
To keep believing, never stop dreaming
My hearts is just the way you left
Keep holding on, to the purpose for living
You are the reason, for a new season
I can wait; it will never be too late
Until we make up, just for breaking up.

How far will you go, and never let go
How far will you go I really want to know?
How far will you go, and never let go
Of the dreams you hold, they are more than gold
How afar will you go, before you know?
The reason for leaving, was in your soul
Keep believing, because I am not leaving
All of my heaven for this crazy world
