"I love you at a safe distance... I’ll always love you at a safe distance..."

"I love you at a safe distance... I’ll always love you at a safe distance..."


"I love you at a safe distance...
I’ll always love you at a safe distance..."

This one is for all of my secret admirers who read me... observations... at a distance...

From your IP address you sit and stare at that "dream cum true..." if only in your mind... that will do...

Pre-occupied with others... easier, low hanging fruit... Leaving no trail... no crumbs to reveal your presence 2 others or 2 me...

We share (often times one-way) stories with a view of a temporary stage... moving at the speed of our finger tips and/or attention span... we can say this... meant that... it matters not... as our mask protects us... so... easy it is 2 read... ponder... listen... move on...

I might respond... I might say yes... I might... I ... what was that...

metaphorically you connected with me... hello... how are you... here we are... here's a friend shake... here's a<b> flirt </font></b>happening... here's a hopeful message... all the easy forms of non-commitment communication... we love them, we do... we are safe... we cannot be hurt...

we can tease... we can<b> flirt... </font></b>but, the arrows miss us completely... not even a hint of closeness... not even a scratch...

Oh... how we luv to luv... from afar... sweet nothings back and forth... a theater of missed boats... late arrivals... early departures... reasons unknown... but, it's all good... 'cause we are safe...

the cyber shakes... the pleasantries of hello... this is who I am... who are you... let me make a note of that... ha, ha, ha... laugh out loud... funny... and, yet... I do have time... just not now...

Let me wipe my tracks... oh... what's that... never mind... I didn't mean it like that... is that what you thought... silence... pause... ... ... ... (my teases me that I am practicing Morse code on my FB page, as oftentimes I put three dots on the title for a post... she really is a comedian... I tell her that I am putting all of my life in my next stand-up routine... she says... she can't wait... I tell her "Luke I am your father..." and, btw... I brought you in 2 this world and taught you how 2 use a fork and tie your shoes... you'd be eating with your fingers and still in velcro if not for me... just sayin'...)

we enjoy the opera... at a distance, easier to watch than to engage...

how romantic... how sensual... that was nice... this was so thoughtful... oh more time on another day...

years from now we can re-create the same scene... with that lack of passion... but, the promise of more... could it be more... wait, there's someone at the door...

and... so... I was inspired by these song lyrics to express the "almost encounters" I've been presented with... and, when people question me about this or that... I write with a history...

when you write 2 tell me about something that touched you... then, I know that it affected you... when others write... I know that it affected them... I don't lose sleep over promises made from here or anywhere... but, they are made...

Just thought that you should know how I feel about these lyrics...

please give them a read... the song itself falls flat for me...
but, the words... that's another store-e...

.....................................................................................................
"I recall the first time you caught me dining alone
At a restaurant on the third floor
You sat down across from me with a bottle of wine
Shook my hand and started 2 pour
Then opened the window 2 the music below
A theater under the stars
We shared our life stories and a view of the stage
Falling in love from afar
Though it feels like they’ve played out
The same act a million times
A routine struggling just 2 keep
From falling asleep reciting their lines
You say this is the way we’re meant
2 enjoy the opera
At a safe distance
We’ve met at this table now ten years in a row
2 see the same opera performed
Recreating the scene down 2 the slightest detail
The night our tradition was born
Attendance is low but still the show must go on
The participants gossip offstage
The waiter assures us that the wine is the same
I guess it gets bitter with age
Though it feels like we’ve played out
The same act a million times
A routine struggling just 2 keep
From falling asleep reciting our lines
Still it makes me happy
I love you at a safe distance
I’ll always love you at a safe distance…" - Color Theory - "A Safe Distance"

Safe distance ... very relevant!

Opportunity may knock only once, but temptation bangs on the door forever!

Loving someone from a distance does make for a very intriguingly and interesting relationship. You know I thought about this song for you as I was reading your words. I hope your Monday is a great start to your new week..

Brian McKnight

"Lovin You From A Distance"

Don't pack your bags, let's miss your flight
Oh, would it be that bad if you stay one more night?
I pray for rain, snow in Hollywood
Just hopin' your plans would change and you'd stay for good

I don't wanna make that drive out to LAX
And have to come home all alone already wishin' that you never left
Every time you're gone it's like a part of me is missing

Girl, I hate lovin' you from a distance
All the nights reaching out for you
And having nothing to hold on to
I'm hoping this time things will be different
Cuz I hate lovin' you from a distance

And there's no bracing myself
When I have to watch you walk away
It feels like my world comes crashing down with each step you take
And it drives me mad, each and every time
That you look back and wave goodbye

I don't wanna wake up without you laying there
With nothing but my t-shirt on and your hair everywhere
I can't go on with you gone, girl, I need you to listen

Cuz I hate lovin' you from a distance
All the nights reaching out for you
And having nothing to hold on to
I'm hoping this time things will be different
Cuz I hate lovin' you from a distance

There's nothing to see, I already know
Can't wait for the day that you don't have to go
But each and every time that you leave
Even though it won't be for long
From the very first moment you're gone

Baby, I'll be missing you
Baby, I'll be missing you
Baby, I'll be missing you
Missing you
I'll be missing you
Baby, I'll be missing you
Baby, I'll be missing you
Missing you

Seduce the mind and see what a wonderful adventure the body will take you on..
