Hands reach to hold <br />As the soul soars high <br />Pulling at the tendrils <br />That hang from its feet <br /> <br />Drifting behind like smoke <br />We watch as distance builds <br />A void we can't step over <br />Opens gaping between <br /> <br />Earthly feet can't tread <br />Upon heavens floors <br />They remain below here <br />To wait in restlessness <br /> <br />Open your heart wide <br />Let go of their memory<br /><br />Fiona Davidson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/open-heart-3/
