  1. The clock ticked nearer and nearer to five o’clock, when Jason was picking her up. Well, actually, she wasn’t getting ‘picked up,’ she was meeting him so to speak. He was most likely going to be late. Like always.

  2. far far away there lived a man who refused to stay near his love. and he died. and it was sad. mostly because no one could come to the funeral because he never stayed near enough to anyone. i’m wondering why he wanted no one near him…

  3. I felt so near to the prize, so close! But it always runs… I hate strings on dollar bills.

  4. how close is someone to you. how far away are you from everyone else? how long until it ends. how fast before it disappears. How else could this be? how near are you to me?

  9. He was coming near. Nearer. The scar on his nose. Those eyelashes so long admired. He was coming nearer. Breathe. Breathe. You must remember to breathe. His lips, those lips. You’ve watched them talk, smile, smirk. Now, they’re coming so close. He’s here, near, now. Breathe. Appreciate. Live.

  10. Close… Intimate… Personal…. Near… This is my relationship with God, my one and only God.

  11. You’re so far away, I know you’re right next to me, but I can’t seem to say whatever it is that will connect me to you. What is the trick, what can I say to get through to you? It’s a magical word, it must be.

  12. Near is all relative. For me it depends on the comprehension. Not on the geography.

  13. I was trying to read Hemingway when he leaped up on the bed, tongue lolling out the side of his mouth. He squeezed in under my arm and looked up longingly. It must have been the lightening, storms scare him.

  14. having someone near you gives you that automatic feeling of relief that everything will be okay that your not alone in this big scary world. The word near is comfort.

  15. near… oh how life was so much better when you were closer. near enough to feel your heartbeat, so close to me i could feel your breath on my neck, entangle my fingers with yours. near. now, near is anything but what we are physically although we grow closer every day.

  16. moving forward.
    so noticeably
    calm
    as you stand, backside to the lakeside,
    eyes closed like a sleepwalker
    or some mariners’ dream:
    comfort comes erratic to you these days.

  17. near is not far. its here, near. you can grab it, touch it, reach out for it because its near. near can be dear, keep it dear to your heart, near to your head and near to your soul. when something is not near, stride to make it near.

  18. I want to be near him, but he is far. And I also feel that distance can be something that is in the mind if we let it bother us.

  19. I used to have a beatiful cabin near the lake, it was such a magic place , where you can leave your problems behind. Near the cabin there was this town whwre people didnt wear shoes, because they thought shoes were keeping them fron contacting nature.

  21. i had a near miss this morning driving to the writer’s workshop at which i don’t feel near good enough amongst the company of some very talented people and i am not near good enough at these spontaneous exercises.

  22. I’m sorry… all I can think of for this word is Grover. Now I am near..(run, run, run, run) and now I am far. Too much beer last night I guess. Don’t get too near me, I have hangover breath.

  23. White fish and Joseph Ceravolo
    Marathons and brick buildings
    Falling trees and drawing breath
    I am and whatever is next

  24. Near the end of the line. I am near the end of my patience, near the edge of reality. I am slowly slipping, and this cliff is growing ever higher, the cavern growing ever deeper. I am nearing the end. Is it even possible for me to ever return?

  25. You are near me. My heart is inside me. Why is it inside? Where does my soul rest? where does the sun shine? I look inside and I see an ocean. What should I write? Everything is near, everything is far, far away.

  26. near to me is a boy. he is near not only in proximity but also in heart. we weren’t always so close. in fact there were times in which is was perfectly content in never seeing him again.

  29. He´s near you. You can´t hear him, but you can feel him. Your heart is racing, but you don´t dare to move, you don´t dare to make a sound. What is he going to do with you? With your family?

  32. I’m nowhere near being who I want to be. I want to be prettier, thinner, more athletic. I want to be way better at the violin because I suck at it right now. I have so many things to improve. I’m nowhere near the best I could be, but hey, I’m trying.

  33. I’m near the end
    I can see it
    but everytime I get close
    I always take a step back.
    I can’t seem to forget you.
    Why?
    Did you really mean that much to me?
    Even when you hurt me?
    I can’t seem to forget you.
    But I need to let go

  34. It was disheartening, really, to look down at the map spread across the table, and then realize that he was so far away from where he needed to be. He still had half an ocean to travel, and it had already been months. At this rate, she was probably already betrothed to some other fellow, and had forgotten about him completely. He fervently hoped that he was still near to her heart, even if he was far from her body.

  35. I am near my friend lucy. She is also sitting on the sofa, looking at her computer. I wish I had something better to do than write about a pointless topic. That just goes to show you where I am in life. The hardest thing to do is to figure out what to do.

  36. this word is how close something is to somewhere. it defines a location of a place contrary to something else. many things in life are near, many are the opposite: far.

  37. It was so close, so impossibly within his reach– this was the closest he had ever been to something so pure, intimate, caring.

  38. No one is near me. I am nearer to them in a phantom form. Where I can run my hands across their lives without the sense of touch. Nothing irrepairable is done.

  39. The drops of rain fell so near, they just about mimicked the tears in her eyes. The only difference was that the slight buds of water held the promise of life while the tears were nothing but the empty regret that accompanies Death.

  40. i am near you in every manner. not just space, or physicallity but in my heart and in my soul. I feel your skin, i hear your breathe, miles away you can stand from me and I would hear your heart beating as though it beats when i sleep right next you. in our sweet slumber you are my protector and when we wake you remain.
