Thieves of Time
The days feel heavy, the distance between us feeling vaster. Maybe it’s the busy days and sleepless nights, maybe it’s just my wondering mind, but I care about us too much to ignore it.
I wish I could lie beside you in a room of our own, tucking ourselves in for the night as the silver moonlight fills the room and the curtains rustle gently against the open window.
But for now I shall close my eyes in hopes our minds drift off together, stealing time we cannot otherwise spend on ourselves. Thieves quietly pocketing what this world is too greedy to spare.
[A poem about long distance and the challenges of making time for each other]
