THE DISTANCE
Though we may be
miles apart
and many roads cross
in between,
love can travel
through prayers and wishes
and cover the
distance from you to me
You haven't been gone
for too long
but each day I feel
it a little more
how the distance
stretching before us now
seems farther than it
ever has before
I hope your road has
taken you
to where you believe
you need to be
but even more, I hope
the distance you’ve traveled
someday leads you
back to me
