The Distance.

The Distance

They say that having the distance between you

Makes it easier

When things fall apart.

But it doesn't.

Because on cold and lonely nights like this,

I used to find solace

In feeling the warmth of your future hands,

And the love of your future kiss.

But tonight,

On this cold and lonely night,

I have only the ghost of your past hands

And the faint memory of your lingering kiss.

On the cold and loneliest of nights like this,

Only my memory exists.
