At Arm's Length

I KEEP YOU CLOSE; YET FAR AWAY,
IT'S EASIER THIS WAY.
 I LOVE YOU MORE EACH AND 
EVERYDAY.
 SO MUCH SO WORD'S CAN NOT
SAY.
 ONE HUG HELD SO TIGHT... 
I KNOW DEEP DOWN THAT
 THIS IS RIGHT.
I TRUST IN YOU TO MAKE 
 MY DAY BRIGHT.
FAITHFUL AS THE BURNING
 CANDLELIGHT.
YOU MAY NOT NOTICE, BUT
 I DO THIS FOR US BOTH.
I KEEP YOU CLOSE, SO FAR
 AWAY...
BECAUSE FOR YOU TO BE 
 SAFE,
YOU MUST STAY AT ARM'S LENGTH.
