I Am Near
Our distance
though as immeasurable
as the vastness
of the sea
Is really closer than
two specks of sand
side by side
on the beach
For we are connected
by Love
A force greater than
the raging tide
more powerful
than time
and can leap over
thousands of miles
with but a
single beat
of
the
heart.
Poetic Ponderings

Thank you. I’ve always thought so. I’ve been in a long distance relationship before…it’s hard, but it’s definitely not impossible to sustain. I married him!
