To a Dear Too Far

A Poem to my love for a contest

[center}A Dear Too Far
By: Chris Moore
To: Rachel Jordan

Do you remember the others
Yeah I dont either
You and I are the only lovers
I wish it was alwasy just you and I together
But I didn't know then what i was thinking
There were only two and no more
They were an eye opener but i wasn't blinking
I didn't realize God had so much more

I cried and cried
Renounced love at its most
But instead a part of me died
A part of me that was slimy and gross
Found out I didn't need it when
I met you once here and there
Now I take trips Bend
My paycheck gone and I dont care

I hate mountains so bad
Especally the ones we know
But i know to be glad
When there is finally no snow
A safe trip over = a safe trip back
its so hard to convince my aunt
When she knows the snows packed
I hate when she says I can't

You know the pain as well as I
when she stops us so close
The moment before I die
I remember one thing the most
Even though I missed out this time
A trip is already planned ahead of the race
For spring in its prime
For you and your sweetly warm embrace

I love you Rachel
