My Star as Far as I Can See for Franziska You are far away and I am too But here we are anyway you And me pinking with propinquity Thinking with specificity In an embrace across time and space Alongside along the long way Stronger for having gone the wrong way The hard way better exercise The letting go to embrace surprise Face to face gone through having gone On to be and do and to go on A journey that is not a race But unites us in spite of it all And it was you as I recall As it is now and as it will be For the rest of my destiny I suppose and who knows but I do Who daresay it is fair to say Though far away we are anyway Sometimes it seems like dreams come true And when they do then like now I see The best of destiny to me Is you though far away and me too It was always you after all Out of the blue and into my heart To be a part of me apart The best of the rest of me is you My star as far as I can see Steven Curtis Lance   Image by Franziska
