Distance

The distance an ocean,
Between you and me.
Going through the motions,
Just trying to be.

Rarely together,
Always apart.
Promises of forever,
Offering your heart.

When shall we next meet,
Reunited once more?
Distance reduced from miles to feet,
Until we're separated like before.

Air filled with tension,
Caused by separation.
Waiting for redemption,
Gained through communication.

Hours upon hours,
And miles in between.
This separation of ours,
No company to glean.

Less and less we talk,
As you well know.
So once again let's walk,
And let the happiness grow
