Love of Distance

Despite the oceans of distance
Heaven and earth keep you close
The rain runs down your face
Washing away things I wish I could
I know the beads of water on your skin were mine
That rain fell on me as a child
In this way I know you have always been there for me
The wind caresses my face the way you would
That breeze ran over your body before coming to me
In this way I know you are always here to touch me
The stars glitter above me, the moon shining
That moon and those stars are with you not long after
In this way I know you are always beside me
Distance may keep us apart
But the elements keep us together
As long as the forces of nature exist
We will be together
Always…
