so close, yet so far

just like January and December, a mirage i saw as I lost my way in a vast desert, a beautiful butterfly i tried to capture back in my younger days, like the moon that shines upon the dark cloudless night, like stars twinkling in the night sky as if challenging me to grasp upon their beauty, just like when i climb a cherry tree just to catch a glimpse of you, we are always so close, yet so far.
