Hearts Are Near

Never stay far away from me,
Even when am in distress, and my burning feet
Can no longer bear; or swift with snugness,
And compassion strikes out only for me; from you.
 
Never stay far away from me,
Even in sunless air; and coast of rumbling wave,
And in time; always be near to kiss my lips,
And lit up my sight and my brows arose in darkness.
 
Never stay far away when am in pain,
When my rotten flesh can take it no longer,
And when memory of you; dawn to fade,
And when my brain are barren to cope.
 
Never tell me when you are sworn to leave,
When your soul are tired to strife, and when–
Fates knocks at once to claim your life,
Never stay far away from me.
