Beyond the Borders

At night I lie awake tossing and turning
In the day I escape to daydreaming
Wandering thoughts come away fleeting
Beyond the borders do you think of me?

In the morning, a cup of coffee, sipping, savouring
At night a cup of tea, soothing and relaxing
But my spirit is restless, marveling, travelling
Beyond the borders do I cross your mind?

The music is playing, I find myself swaying and humming
Conversations are light, I find myself talking and laughing
But I am hearing nothing, my ears reaching out a far
Beyond the borders do you do you feel my heart?

Reading, phrasing beautiful words rhyming
Writing, engraving, strings of lyrics on my page
But my mind is like a clean white leaf, blank, empty
Beyond the borders, Am I included in your list?

There you maybe, on a faraway place
Under the orange and blue sky of misty haze
Elsewhere you may be beyond the blue ocean lace
But beyond the borders and back, in my heart you have a place.
