Distant

Haruki Murakami

Sometimes when I look at you, I feel I'm gazing at a distant star. It's dazzling, but the light is from tens of thousands of years ago. Maybe the star doesn't even exist any more. Yet sometimes that light seems more real to me than anything. 

Fitzgerald Edward

Ah, take the cash in hand and waive the Rest; Oh, the brave Music of a distant drum!
