Differences between time and space

"Reminiscing" 

There’s no end to the distance.

Time pushed you away;

            Time brought you back.

Still, Earth is a large place to these eyes

            That still want to see you

                        Every day and night,

            Or these arms of mine

                        That only wish

                                    To hold you

Closer than ever.

Each night I dream of you.

Each day my body aches

            Just to feel your presence.

“Missing” you is more relative than “love,”

            Yet, I swear, both describe

                        My thoughts each day.

Sunshine brings a reminder of times

            When I took seeing you for granted.

Grade school was so long ago;

            Junior year was forever ago…

I hated those years so much,

            But I’d return

                        Just to have you near.

The future will be bright

            As long as it contains you.

Eventually, I know, Fate

            Will bring us back to the same room.

If not, I’m sure “comedy” sings a different tune;

For, a tragedy no longer describes us.



Fate drives me.
