Distance

Distance,

How do we close this gap between us?

This rift that only grows bigger with time.

I didn’t mean to push you so far,

My words were meant to heal not break.

I didn’t mean to silence you,

My point of view was just my truth.

Now there’s an ocean between us,

Where you and I used to exist.

You can’t build a bridge back to me,

I can’t make the journey to you.

Distance,

Perhaps it was meant to be.
