Long Distance Relationships.
We were on two points
on this world
talking through a wire
think about our
words
travelling through
eons and eons
of other people’s days
I told you I was okay,
you heard my breath hitch
and held me silently
anyway
over rivers and seas
our souls have always been
in communication
touching lightly
you have been my gulp of fresh air
every time I came back to reality
from a tunnel of being choked
by too many emotions
and I knew that
right now, when it’s 9 pm your time
and 4 pm mine
and you are at a party,
laughing and smiling
over a joint being passed around
I am right there beside you
your silent ghost
of your past
your dream of our future
and when you look to the side
and you smile
and lightly thread your fingers
through mine
I am right there,
in that room
invisible
laughing with you,
high on life.
