Distance
Anthony Van Nus 2006 (Oregon)
I’ll take a picture with my eyes, and keep it in my heart.
That way, we will never be apart.
I will sing a song with my voice, with power in my chest.
I will try my hardest, but it may not be the best.
I will hear your poetry with my ear, it always makes me shed a tear.
Send it in the mail if you cannot be here.
