Waiting to fly

The gentle hum
Of the electronic chimes
Signal the end of my night
And another day has arrived
Yet what for
I have not asked for this one to pass
Yet it has
And how
Each day is another step
A way that leads to further distance
From her
And it seems no less than it was yesterday
Yet enough for one to know
This is how it seems
And only grows
Building a void
Deeper than it was
Yet the void has a calling
Of me wanting to fall
And fall I could
If not for being on the ledge of sanity
Yet is the sanity worth
Some days are so
It seems
Most days, even further profound
Then again why lament
What I seek is beyond
