Oaths

Believe what you will,
but utter no oaths, nor seek
to vex a deaf sky;
there are no ritual words
that will heal the heart's blindness.

so close, and yet so

so close, and yet so 
far – sometimes, home is on the 
other side of the 

planet and then again, just 
underneath our eyelids, waiting 
.
