At a Distance

At a distance,I hear the birds rejoice
The choice is mine to hear
Not to fear the sounds
In my head,that will not come unwed.

At a distance,sounds follow me
To see the heavens open
To hear the praise of the wildlife
Sometimes my fears cut like a knife

At a distance is far for me
To hear the sweet sounds of your voice
At a distance gets closer the times I let go
Of the fears that haunt me so long ago.

At a distance,you keep coming to me
I love the way you won't let me go
I love the way you stay and keep me under control.

At a distance is still in my soul
But I have to learn to play my role
To not have you at a distance way down deep
In my soul.
