Requested Poem Entitled, "Love Being Separated By Distance"
“Love
Being Separated By Distance”
you
wonder
if
its you
yourself
or
you with them
that catapulted this longing into existence
sometimes
we
just
seek to fill a space
distract
ourselves from our own dissatisfaction
by
longing for someone
who
really is just an idol
we
dont want them
we
almost never do
because
we truly love them
we
want them because of how they make us feel
conditional verses unconditional love
fading
now
into
the waves of desperation
i
will always be desperate for you
longing
for your touch, your kiss
your
voice, words of understanding
to
want something that is so close
but so far away
but so far away
agony
in longing
you
are my sea, my ocean
the sky above and all that fills it
the sky above and all that fills it
to
miss you
to be far apart
to be far apart
i
would rather
fall
face forward into that cold space
then
to never have you fill it again
