“The Distance”
In the distance
I see you standing there
In the distance
Unknown are your cares
In the distance
Wish your lips could share
In the distance
What your soul would bare
Closing the distance
I run to you over there
Closing the distance
Into your eyes I stare
Closing the distance
Hand gripping your hair
Closing the distance
Your life, I can’t spare
Written on February 21, 2023
Original poem ended with the line, “My heart is your spare.” It was changed to the current line, “Your life, I can’t spare,” on 3/8/2023 because that line rang truer to P.S. Kessell’s writing themes and style.
